Due to strong indications of immanent invasion by PEACE, President Richardson. the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Secretary of State and many others have asked for a temporary increase in income taxes to fund a probable war. The increase will be rescinded if the eUS experiences no attack for seven days. Income taxes will increase from 20% to 30%. The intelligence supporting the prediction of war has not been shared with Congress, but there have been threatening moves by PEACE nations, and PEACE nations have increased their taxes. After careful consideration, I have decided to vote in favor of these temporary, emergency tax increases.

Intel sharing: Unfortunately, all members of Congress cannot be trusted with extremely sensitive intel. However, there were enough developments in the world to substantiate the warnings. For example, Hungary's occupation of Scotland gives it a boarder with Canada. They can invade Canada, then the US.

Training wars are not considered an attack for these purposes. That was discussed.

Reject the oppressive 30% income tax. In Greece you can make roughly twice as much money after tax.
USD 1 = GRD 2.22
