i think it should a be mixture of tax increases and cutting spending. if the taxes are too high then some people will complain and if there is too many spending cuts then the others will complain. it is a matter of what the american citizens agree on and in my opinion it should be a mixture. the republicans refusing to increase taxes is ridiculous, because if they want our economy to rise then eventually you will have to help out and not just rely on the government to do all the work. i think the democratic view on more taxes and less spending cuts is reasonable, because they want to help by spending their money to help out our country.
