“There won't have to be tax increases.”
Diane Sawyer
“There's a lot of evidence you can sell people on tax increases if they think it's an investment”
Bill Clinton
“There is a direct link between the federal tax cut of 2001 and state tax increases in 2003. When the federal government's mistakes force states to raise their taxes, it not only robs Peter to pay Paul, but it hurts hard-working families and it undermines our economy's strength.”
Senator John Kerry
“Well, the real John Kerry, in my book, is the man who voted for $1/2 trillion in tax increases in Washington, D.C., and I think that's relevant in the context of the Senate elections.”
Bill Weld
“dump the largest debt in world history into the laps of the next generation. Within a decade, tax increases would need to reach $7,000 per household (a 37 percent tax hike) just to balance the budget.”
Brian Riedl
“Tax increases are a dirty word, but the question is if the public would be willing to accept a small surcharge on their taxes to cover the cost of Katrina,”
Vernon Ehlers
“The city has committed itself to excellence. There's been steady growth in tax revenues without any tax increases.”
