Obama calls for higher taxes on rich to cut deficits
President Obama outlined a deficit plan aimed at raising taxes on high earners, closing corporate loopholes, and trimming Medicare growth via provider cuts. He warned he would veto any bill cutting Medicare without new revenue and tied $1 trillion in savings to troop withdrawals from Iraq and Afghanistan. The GOP dismissed the plan, signaling continued battles over entitlement reform and fiscal policy.
