While trying to set the record for most banal hash tags in a single tweet, Marco Rubio peddles one of GOP's favorite lies: that no tax increases will be required to pay off the debt that's been run up primarily by historically-low tax rates and the Bush tax cuts.

Oh, and as a reminder.

Bill Clinton raised taxes on the wealthiest Americans and produced 20M jobs -- while turning a deficit into a surplus. So no, Marco, #taxincreases clearly don't #hurt #growth.
