OBAMA: Tax Our Way to Prosperity

The cognitive dissonance, it hurts:

There’s “no reason why we can’t have really strong growth in 2013,” the president said in an interview with CBS television yesterday before the network’s Super Bowl broadcast. He cited a recovering housing industry, strong manufacturing and rising car sales.

Revenue could be raised through an overhaul of the tax code, he said, “and we can do it in a gradual way so that it doesn’t have a huge impact.”

You’re the frog. Obama is the pot of water. Now start producing those jobs while he turns up the heat.
