I was being facetious. I didn't expect the .gov to raise taxes to fix all the levees in the country, nor do I feel it's necessary for the people to pay to fix all the bridges.

The liberals have done a REALLY good job of planting that falsehood in the mind of americans.

If we didn't spend billions in Iraq, where would that money go? Hint: It simply wouldn't exist. It wasn't taken away from anything.

No, it was raised in taxes, much like a tax on gas to fix roadways and bridges would be.

No...it wasn't. It was raised in taxes AND borrowed. I'm sure you are familiar with all the methods of borrowing in your business. The US Government has an unlimited supply of funds. They can always spend less or spend more, it simply doesn't matter. Why raise taxes when they can cut back in so many other areas?
