“Read my lips: No new taxes” Part Deux v$1.5b

January 30th, 2005 · No Comments

I can’t find the link to where I found it, but I said something along the lines that there will be tax hikes, but they just won’t call them that. Bush referred to them as revenue enhancements. Well, here you go…

Bush’s plan calls for boosting the security fee from $2.50 to $5.50 for a one-way airline ticket and from a maximum of $5 to $8 for multiple legs. The hikes are expected to generate $1.5 billion.

Let the spinning, rationalizing, and general sackriding commence.
