I heard this interview last year, and even though they are probably not the words I would use to express it, it is pretty much how I view this situation:

Quote:
I was questioned last year, before Mr. Obama took the presidency, people was like, "Well he's going to raise the taxes and it means that you're going to have higher taxes, because you are above that $250,000 year quota," right? And I was like, "Well, you know what, if I have to pay a little more extra so that others can have a little more food, clothing and shelter, then let me pay." Because you know, what you want for yourself, you should want for your brother and your fellow man.

Now, we don't all need things that we yearn for. And I try to teach my children right now more than ever that yo, OK, there's some things you want and some things you need. Let's deal with what we need and not what we want more. And that alone will help you get through a recession. Because your eyes want it all. You know, the cake looks good, the coat looks good, the car looks nice. But do you need it? I'm willing to accept that.
