Because it isn't "the American people don't want higher taxes"....the question is "do the american people want a proportionately fair tax system on the money made from the corporations and wealth aristocrats (that is not coming back to us via the "trickle down theory or will it ever) on the backs of us working class." This is another Republican myth that they are spreading to instill fear.
