I believe that many politicians appear to want to portray tax rises as "evil incarnate" rather than a useful economic tool. I think that any reasonable person in charge of an economy should realise that the proper use of tax rises is important to support society's basic needs. No matter how much restructuring of public services is carried out the truth will out - you can't get something for nothing.
