Just say no to more taxes

Enough with the taxes already. We have an income tax, a sales tax, a gas tax, a marriage tax and even a death tax. That's right - if you die you have to pay for it. I guess the only good thing you can say about that is that it gives you an incentive to live.

But at what point do you say enough is enough? I personally think it's far past due that we eliminate some of these taxes.

It seems like Congressman Peter Roskam agrees. He's has been doing his best to eliminate the marriage penalty tax and the death tax, and wants to make the tax cuts permanent. If the tax cuts are not made permanent we'll have the largest tax increase in American history.

Roskam also wants to double the child tax credit, which would help hundreds of thousands of families in the district save for their children's education.

More money in our pockets and more money for our kid's futures. That sounds good to me.

Enough taxes. (Not enough politicians like Peter Roskam.)
