Agreed, reluctantly, because it's reduced to "tax
and borrow and spend" in practice.

Better still: don't borrow & don't spend so much.

But if you're going to spend it, you should collect it,
otherwise it's just a hidden tax, due later with interest.

Disagree. If you kill the golden goose... We are on the negative
slope of the Laffer curve, so increased taxes mean *less* revenue to
spend. ...something only Obama is stupid enough to *admit* is a
good thing.
