Not just farm subsidies but all corporate subsidies. Like the Market Promotion Program

I would loved to see our side, if congressional R’s are on our side, finally just say, “We can no longer negotiate with this administration in good faith.” Make the divide, which is already huge, more visible. The problem is the divide is not very wide in D.C.

I’d vote for every single one of those...just to see the anguish and lashing out from the left.

If we ended the income tax and replaced it with the Fair Tax, the only people out of a job would be the IRS and the thousands of tax accountants.

Senate Republicans have NO SPINE. Mitch will rollover. He should send DeMint over to take care of business

“”It’s the only way to get it done,” Carney said. The White House has proposed raising about $600 billion in new tax revenue, including ending subsidies to oil and gas companies, an idea that failed in the Senate.”

IDIOTS!

How about ending subsidies to ‘green’ energy which does absolutely nothing to help the economy or produce energy for consumption.

Higher taxes are inevitable. We’ve reached the point of no return on that one sadly. BUT, no new taxes until they make massive cuts in spending.

Not a bad suggestion. We should burn his phone lines and tell him that.

And what is your rational that there be higher taxes? Because you want to spend money you don't have? Did you have a mortgage you could not afford? have you been bankrupt? Yours is the type of thinking that has caused those events to take place.

Nice. Our deficits are so high I don’t see a way out that is politically feasible. Ideologically, I agree with you, but I don’t think it’s possible in this environment. I see our country crashing and burning due to our deficits and we need to shore up our finances using ALL methods.

You’re either an idiot, or a plant.

Higher taxes will devastate our industrial production, small business (which is responsible for close to 90% of our jobs), and our economy.

We need a two year tax holiday to stimulate the economy, and the total repeal of Obamacare for starters. A repeal of all union protections is absolutely mandatory also.

The way out is to repeal the congressional acts that created the spending. Now!

this really works....FDR took a recession and turned it into the Great Recession by pushing his leftist ideals.
