    well you can also balance budgets by raising taxes or even just collecting income, investment, and corporate taxes equally and having tiers that don’t cap at six figures.

      BUT THAT’S SOCIALISM!!!11!1one!1!

      /s in case it wasn’t blindingly obvious.

      In seriousness, just rolling back the Bush era tax cuts would provide a huge boost to Federal Government revenue. There are a lot of other possible options, as well, which could raise revenue. But, the GOP never met a tax cut they didn’t like and a tax increase they didn’t hate.
