The answer is no, that we're going to stop the tax increases that President Bush gave to people in the top brackets. We're going to end war as an instrument of policy, with the defense policy of strength through peace. So we're not going to be borrowing money from China to fight wars in Baghdad. We're going to lower our trade deficit by ending NAFTA and the WTO and going back to trade based on worker's rights. We're going to have a change in our economy so that people will be able to get something for the taxes they pay, but they're not going to have to pay more.
