Immediate Tax Hikes Opposed by Sen George
Senator George of Georgia in Washington warned against immediate tax increases to fund Korea and defense. He favors pay-as-you-go taxation and slow, careful billing, arguing the $10 billion target may grow to $15 or $20 billion. He believes Korea will stay regional with a stronger defense, and criticizes others for calling for quick tax hikes.
