A Few Important Views on the President’s Budget Plan | Jared Bernstein | On the Economy:

This is not class warfare.� It’s math.� The money is going to have to come from someplace.� And if we’re not willing to ask those who’ve done extraordinarily well to help America close the deficit and we are trying to reach that same target of $4 trillion, then the logic, the math says everybody else has to do a whole lot more:� We’ve got to put the entire burden on the middle class and the poor.� We’ve got to scale back on the investments that have always helped our economy grow.� We’ve got to settle for second-rate roads and second-rate bridges and second-rate airports, and schools that are crumbling.
