while we don't always agree ... well rarely agree :) .... I at least agree with your last sentence.

I do think it is outrageous that they are even talking about not extending all the tax cuts at least another year or two while the economy is still fragile and so many people unemployed ... make it two and the next :) president and congress can deal with it.

what did those making over $250 do wrong that they should be penalized when 92% of the taxes paid are in the top 5% already. It is not like they do not already pay their fair share. I ask the question all the time ... what percent of the taxes should the top 5% income earners pay .... typically I will get an answer like 25%. no one realizes the amount they pay already so others don't have to. they are the job creators and the risk takers .... why would we want to penalize them further and run the risk they do not take risks and create jobs or move to their residency to another country as businesses do to escape our high taxes.
