War Tax
The cost of all US military and related action in response to the attacks on 9-11-2001 will be established and a tax levied upon those who most benefited: those whose income, assets, and/or net-worth grew during that time-frame. Once the wars are paid for, the tax will end.
Why is this important?
One of the reasons our economy and the federal budget is suffering is because we've been fighting wars without paying for them. A one-time tax to be levied until the Iraq and Afghanistan invasions and occupations have been paid for should be levied on those who most benefited from those military industrial actions: those whose incomes, assets, and net worth has grown since 9-11-2001. When the trillions of dollars lost to fight those wars are replaced, the war tax will end.
