That's what I'm trying to explain to you. You apparently are refusing to do the math. They will have spent the 1.46 billion you propose taxing more per week in less than 5 HOURS.

You can't tax people fast enough to keep up with that.

Spending needs to be actually CUT. And I'm not talking about the bullshit Washington D.C. idea of "cutting" They call it a "cut" when it doesn't RISE as much as it did the year before.
$75 billion a year is a drop in the bucket and that $10 per week tax would actually hurt a lot of low income people.

Hurt people to do nothing. Brilliant.
