So these days, not raising taxes is considered a tax cut??

How long before they have us thanking them for not taking everything? Which, of course, would be a tax cut

“So these days, not raising taxes is considered a tax cut?”

It’s Bush’s fault.

Really this time.

He sold the tax deferments (no spending cuts) as “tax cuts,” and sold the deficits as “tax cuts” and asked that the “tax cuts” be made “permanent.” The terminology problem is much due to Bush’s rhetoric, and continues.
