Reader comment on: Elizabeth Warren's Trillion Dollar Tax Increase

Submitted by Matt (United States), Jul 11, 2012 12:56

Meh. Ten year figures are useless. Even one year projections of changes to tax rates are questionable.

An actual trillion dollar reduction in the deficit sounds good (except that it's tax increases) until you find out that's a ten year forecast. Those ten year figures just let politicians fool around at the margins and make their changes look more significant than they really are.
