I'm not trying to be smart, or snarky, or anything like that.

Our allies are there b/c we are there. It stands to reason that if we began a phased withdrawl then they too would begin to withdrawl.

Ok here's why I said no... I don't think ANYONE'S taxes need to go to financing the war because we need to be bringing them home hence no need for the $$. Has nothing to do with making the rich pay taxes or not. EVERYONE should be paying taxes and those highest up have the most loopholes & tax breaks and it's about time those loopholes are closed & the massive breaks are stopped so those at the bottom can breathe. Yes they should be "doing their patriotic duty" and pay taxes. It's the Iraq war scenario you pointed to that I disagree with.

I don't disagree but I meant more in terms of ... do they agree to phase theirs out, or will they simply pull way since we're phasing out .... will the schedules be similar .... that sort of thing.

I think that b/c they are our allies they would work with us to do what's best for all involved.

But does it make you happy to have someone else pay for you because you don't make as much as them?
