Better thread title.

Both sides may very well be just about equally bad for fiscal management but only one of the two sides has never met a Tax they weren't willing to gve a big warm hug to and sponsor right to the bitter end.
There isn't much left to tax before they are directly to blame for people lacking the most basic items in life...and I mean the WORKING people, not the ones on Uncle's Freebie Express. They're taken care of, of course.

Perhaps the saddest part is that they will raise $80bln in revenue and then piss it all away like they never even had it.
Fox news story on Democrats... probably a bit sensationalized.
-sigh- Everyone in the government needs to be replaced.

Next time read the article you post. Nowhere in it does Obama or the democrats make this threat. It's just another FOX whinefest about taxing the wealthy. You know it's ok that some broker on wall street that is actively wrecking our economy pays less in taxes than a soldier in combat defending his nation pays.
It wouldn't hurt next time to use the real title instead of making up a lie as the title.edit on 16-7-2012 by buster2010 because: (no reason given)

The Bush tax cuts are the largest single-policy contributor to the deficit and have created ZERO jobs
So it makes a lot of sense to get rid of them. And it's not the only deficit cutting measure the Dems propose, so it's a bit silly of you to pretend that's the case...

Does it seem to you that the liberals are just copying the European system?
ObamaCare = 2 Tier Healthcare system in Great Britain.
Bring over the VAT tax to solve our $$$ trillion deficits.

We have positive GDP growth and weak job numbers. We can do a lot better.
