Sacrifice
God forbid that Americans earning, say, more than $1 million a year be asked to pony up a little more in taxes to support a larger military at a time when, we are told over and over, the country is in the middle of a war on terror. Millionaires can't be asked to sacrifice even just a little bit. No, they deserve to have their taxes cut while others fight and die.
-- E.J. Dionne

One of the things that angers me the most with the current regime is all the things they have been asking of regular Americans, while working hard to give those tax breaks to the elite. "You need to sacrifice your civil rights, because a war's on." "We're going to war, we want you to send your children to die."
