I couldn't have said it better

This is so worth a read. Higher taxes always scares people. But we forget to tell them that their taxes will go up, but their paychecks will get bigger too because no more before-tax deductions for your company health plan. No more deductions for the tax-deferred health care spending account. No more unexpected Dr. bills in the mailbox when you come home from work. No more shame when you listen to your kids struggle to make it in the future America that was supposed to be better than it is when you were their age.
