Waste...
I think the middle class generally looks at people on welfare who "game the system", $600,000 ash trays for submarines, 50,000 toileat seats and believe there is enough systematic waste that can clear the government budget sheet well.
Combined with the elimination of various rich people and company deductions. I don't think they so much favor tax increases, but are for all kinds of crazy often times made up tax deductions that various people think the rich have.
Like how somehow if you donate money to charity you pay less in combined charity+taxes then you would of in just taxes, because they don't know how the graduating levels tax system works because they often have botique tax accountants/just don't understand how charity deductions work because they haven't donated that much.

Are there really examples of this kind of waste in the government or is this just an old exageration that has been picked up as the truth? I hear this all the time, but I have never actually seen any kind of news about this other than the $20 muffin dispute a year or so ago and even that was an exageration for political reasons.

Old exaggerations from the Iraq war. Everyone knows that it costs a lot of money to provide troops with internet service, and to effectively gauge their internet demand you must count them twice when they enter the internet cafe. Halliburton is the best at knowing the real cost of war.
