I guess it depends on where your mind's at.

Personally, I don't mind paying taxes, so long as my tax money is handled effectively... and that's part of Edward's platform - more effective use of taxes... I don't think taxing "more" is anywhere on the schedule... I mean, hell... the Iraq war coulda paid for a hundred years of 'medicine for all' in America by now, I'd imagine... or flown a couple people to Pluto and back with the war's budget... there's certainly quite a bit of waste... that waste is what needs to be addressed - and that's where Edwards is headed.

Paul wants to eliminate taxes all together. Which is another very cool direction to head in, imho.

Both are great philosophies, and both candidates can bring good change to our country, I think... just in different flavors.
