Shapiro of Yahoo Finance on Why Paying for Government is So Difficult

Price and Shapiro look at the current attitudes about taxes in DC and why it is so difficult to get government spending paid for and why it is so easy for the government to accumulate trillions in debt.

The current attitude on taxes is reminiscent of what the former Senate Finance Chairman, Russell B. Long, said decades ago: “Don’t tax you, Don’t tax me, Tax that fellow behind the tree.”
