RE: I guess everyone is happy to see all of the new taxes from the White House.
We were between a rock and a hard place.
Like it or not, Obama (with the help of many who disliked him but chose to stay home ) was re-elected President and openly campaigned to raise taxes on the rich.
The alternative was of course to vote NO on the McConnell-Biden deal which if it went down would have cause the Bush tax cuts to expire and RAISED EVERYONE’s TAXES (including those making much less than $200,000 ).
