Steve Forbes Urges Boehner: No Tax Increases, Just Fight for Renewal

John Boehner is making a big mistake by calling for tax increases by closing deductions and he shouldn’t be trying to make majore reforms in the short time left before the fiscal cliff is upon us, Steve Forbes has told the House Speaker.
Instead Forbes, the influential CEO of Forbes Inc. and editor-in-chief of Forbes magazine, has formulated a plan spelling out what Republican lawmakers must do now to stop the country from falling off the fiscal cliff.
“Mr. Speaker, we are losing the cliff war in terms of public opinion, but the tables can be turned,’’ Forbes writes in an open letter, posted on Forbes.com just hours after Boehner emerged from negotiations with Democrats to say that “no progress” had been made.
