I looked too; it doesn't have that stated. Looks more like the plan was more of a rework of current taxes than a tax increase. I feel that my point is still made regardless though.
Hm, well, the following point from your comment is currently conjecture, as you've provided no source for it:
My point being that taxes and the system in general are so messed up that we could acheive a lot of our other goals by rearranging the current tax mess into something less awful.
We don't have to start with 'more taxes' in order to accomplish a reasonably run welfare system.
I'm inclined to agree, though there may certainly be facets that I haven't considered.
