first of all, the majority of tax dollars DO NOT go to social programs:

look, i put myself through school twice, and have worked for everything i have. the LAST thing i want is to take it and give to someone who doesn't work.
AND the majority of the new tax revenues will come from ending the tax cuts for the top 1% of earners in this country. trust me when i say this does not include you or me.
YES if you are a couple earning more than $250K per year your taxes will increase. so, i can understand why you would oppose the plan if you fall into this tax bracket.
but ask yourself this question- how has the current tax code benefitted the middle class? do you REALLY believe the elite give two solitary craps about you?
