You're not doing a very good job of spreading the rumor that Obama lowered taxes. Bad lemming! They don't, but socialists just can't help themselves.
You are forgetting that we are relying on other country`s growth to keep us up. And tax increases also increases wage demand and we always want more then the tax hike at review time. They may not figure oil and food in inflation but I do and I bet most Americans do.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
