Subject: raising taxes

Comment: What a sad surprise: the panel's idea for "reforming" tax policy is to raise taxes. Of course, it's dressed up in class warfare attire: we're going to make employers and the rich pay more. What a joke. We needed a panel to do this?! This is what politicians do all the time. Why do we need a panel to raise taxes? Please stop wasting taxpayer money on your fancy panel. Unless you're going to consider real, substantial tax reform, stop wasting our money.
