More tax increases are a dead issue. Not going to happen. Spending cuts, Spending cuts, Spending cuts!
Well since the bill O signed makes most of the Bush tax cuts permanent, meaning they don’t expire like they did twice before (Dec 31 2012), they wont have this weapon to use again.
RE: they wont have this weapon to use again.
Just remember this — the present Congress is NOT BOUND by a previous congress.
Therefore, nothing is “permanent”
You do understand that those tax cuts had a built in expiration date, and why they did? And what trouble that caused the past few weeks?
First Dec 31, 2010, then extended for two more years by O and Pelosi congress.
Extending them in 2010 was the SMARTEST thing O did, Few Rs appear bright enough to understand why it was such a smart move for him.
They never stop. inch by inch they will cover the mile to their goal.

I agree with Charles Krauthammer. Obama has shown himself to be a European Socialist. He is going to continue spending as he has during his first term. Then a Republican will be brought in to “fix” the catastrophe when Obama is finished. I can see Michelle telling Barry “Now that there is a black president, suddenly there’s no money? Whitey’s got it. Now go get it Barrack.”
Yeah - we got a glimpse of what “balanced” means to Obama and the rest of the ‘rats on Fox tonight - not “balanced” with spending cuts and limitations on entitlements - but “blanced” with more tax increases, as in eliminating “loopholes” AKA deductions such as mortgage and medical costs - this country really is headed over the cliff......
The rich are being flushed out like a marching band in full force heading into a preserve, they will move offshore and will deny any further confiscation by the government.
Or they will fold into shell companies with tax exemption status.
If we had a conservative alternative to the Demonrats I would agree, alas......
If the “rich” wish to avoid losing their cash, they need to buy wind power, solar power and algae power industry. Then they will get lots of “grants” which they can gobble up and declare bankruptcy. I am sure they are busy buying and creating more Solyndra’s.
LOL LOL LOL....Puh Huhleeze stop...LOL
they will get money via death of us.
obamacare will kill more people when the government determines you’re ot worth saving.
they wil then get OUR money from the dead via progressive death taxes. they really rake it in when it’s a big estate. on money that’s been earned for decades and have already been taxed.
kill off the rich old people with large estates via obamacare qaly scores, take the family’s oney, keep spending more and complain the rich still aren’t paying enough.
There is NEVER anything “balanced” about Debbie Wasserman-Schmuck. NEVER.
She is Alan Grayson in drag.
The only "balanced" tax structure would be if everyone's income were taxed at the same rate. THAT's equality. THAT would be "balanced". This sliding scale stuff has got to go. I want a one-page income tax form that says, for example: Calculate 15% of your gross income and make the check out to Treasury Dept. Hehe, goodbye IRS.
They already have a VAT. It’s called the corporate tax. More probably wouldn’t be unpopular, considering no one notices the one we have, nor countless other taxes. People are ignorant.
Pffft. Like they couldn’t drum up another phoney baloney crisis or get Pubs to trade tax hikes for magic beans. Anyway, they don’t need to bother with oldfashioned laws and parliamentary procedure. They can tax at will through the money supply, at least until its price inevitably skyrockets. But by then Keynes said we’d all be dead.
