If the UK needs to raise taxes
To meet their defense obligations (them and the rest of our NATO “allies”) that’s a “them” problem. Not an us problem.


I agree, in principle. The trick is in *how* the taxes are raised. Recall the words of Trump the Mighty, to pay for his wars, he wants to take the money out of child care, Medicare, and Medicaid, ie, take money away from Proles. Because, of course, must not "burden" the JCs with paying for the wars.

Macron wanted to solve his budget problem by taking retirement benefits away from Proles. Must not "burden" the "JCs", you know.

We saw the same thing here in Michigan when we had a "JC" Gov. Raised taxes on pensioners and the working poor, and cut revenue sharing to cities and counties, to cover two rounds of tax cuts for "JCs".
