Well, more like "guys, we need to increase taxes to make this work" and "we can't promise things will be like in the good old days".
Even that, as I understand it, doesn't go over well. Especially when the other guy cuts out all the context in an attack ad.
In my fairly direct experience policy and politics are completely different. Policy people get a seat at the table basically just because politicians are there to shield them from the politics.
