摘要

If you make more than $250,000 you are perhaps fretting about how much the bailout and the fiscal stimulus will cost and how much you will pay for them. Tune out these dark thoughts. There is something much bigger to think about: the rising cost of government over the next 15 years. This should be on the minds not just of the upper class, who already pay half of the income tax, but of the vast middle class. If we define the larger group as those in families with incomes between $25,000 and $250,000, we're talking about three-fourths of the country. The government is destined to extract a pound of flesh from the middle class because this is where the money is; there simply aren't enough millionaires around to pay for everything. The pain will take the form of both taxation and broken promises.rnHere's what sober budget analysts (from both parties) see when they focus on 2020 and beyond: The well-off will pay higher federal taxes, for sure. But ordinary folks will pay more, too. They will pay as tax burdens diffuse into the costs of things they buy. They will likely pay more for fuel and electricity, as the costs of carbon permits and renewable-fuels mandates get built in. They may be asked to pay a European-style value-added tax. And they will pay on the other side of the ledger: Their retirement benefits will get clipped.
