Democrats to run on tax hikes.

Democrats because whoever the nominee ends up being is gonna have to go down that road:

Hillary Clinton is going to propose “revenue enhancements,” which is a term that means tax hikes.

Clinton campaign press secretary Brian Fallon said on Twitter that the campaign will propose “revenue enhancements” to raise money for various government programs including universal preschool.

Mind, by ‘have to’ I’m referring to the expectations of the Democratic base. The rest of us are already well aware that our taxes are too high, and too complicated, already.  Unfortunately for the Democrats, they’ve avoided explaining fiscal reality to their own side for just a little too long…

PS: Thanks, Democrats!  Every little bit helps.

    Is this a new thing? I don’t remember ever hearing about this, although it sounds exactly like the sort of thing any big government loving leftist would embrace immediately.

    1. It’s not new .. but I think it’s only currently a thing in liberal paradises.

      Note the appeal .. “Aunt Nana’s Childcare”, which is filled with a small number of ungrateful, non-union, self-employed workers gets replaced by the Millicent Rutledge Pre-K School, packed full of ungrateful, unionized government apparatchiks ..
