The Tea Party will ruin the retirements of millions of people, perhaps even destroying the entire country. They are terrorists and anarchists, as described in this mornings New York Times.
The Republicans are being fools. They owe some loyalty to the President of the unites states. They did not receive a mandate in last election to be over zealous and radical. The politicians that were tossed were tossed because people are fed up with Wash DC BS. We will toss more next election. There has to be people somewhere willing to do what’s best for the citizens than themselves..
Both of your comments are a bit extreme and not helpful. Both parties have to come to their senses. We need to increase taxes short term and reduce spending an equal amount to avoid the catastrophy Greece is facing. Now is the time to do the right thing and stop kicking the can down the road. It will hurt, we ALL need to feel it but it will better in the long run.
GL, I agree with you on most points. However, we don’t need to raise marginal tax rates on anyone including the so called rich making over $250,000. All we need to do is do away with the current tax code and eliminate all the loop holes that GE used to pay no federal income tax on earnings. Everyone needs to have some skin in the game including the 50% of Americans who pay no tax at all. Do this along with cutting all this horrible wasteful, corrupt spending on departments, agencies, programs that are duplicative would get the budget under control. The problem has been Progressive politicians who don’t want to give up anything on entitlements or their pet projects and only want to tax more so they can spend more.
