Increasing the tax rate is not redistributing the wealth its just bringing in more revenues. To REDISTRIBUTE means to spend those increased revenues.

Again reducing the deficit by 60% is not a balanced budget you still have 40% left.

Lets see a budget proposal that ran a deficit was not supported by republicans in congress. Thanks for proving my point.
