Bill Clinton: No more taxes now

**Opinion**


While entitled to his opinion, I respectfully disagree. There is no time for debating on which is the best action to take. Instead, many things that can create revenue, such as tax increases on those that can easily afford it, need to be implemented ASAP. It's no surprise to me that Clinton has a great public perception, when in actuality, wasn't that great of a "democratic" president and, furthermore, can, in many ways, be compared to President Obama. However, now may not be the best time to raise taxes - how about 4-8 years ago!? That's a way better idea, isn't it? Also, a nice flip-flop from a stance taken a week earlier, former president, Clinton. I have to wonder...is it an insult to ask the wealthy to pay their fair share, or do they actually, not want to be asked at all? The, “anti-government extreme position”, he speaks of, should scare people, more and more the international opinion of the U.S. suffers. Well, in this matter, maybe it's better we have Obama in office, rather than Mrs. Clinton. Then again, I'm not thrilled with either side at this point.
