the bush tax cuts in combination with his massive spending and his lack of control of the corporate system caused the enormous debt and caused the economic crisis. Those cuts should never have been put in place, because they contributed to the debt of the country. Not extending them is not a tax hike, it's the end of an abomination.
Our problem isn't tax revenue. The Government gets more then enough in tax revenue. The problem is massive spending. Spending way more then you take in. Congress has put us in huge dept because they are stupid.
tax hikes lol so hey moron Demint wants to shut down government just because!!!! has no real reason has no fixes in mind just a weirdo radical. if Demint you do not like government then maybe the job is not a fit for you I say!!! 800 million dollars of tax payers money to shut down government thats what it cost last time it happened probably would cost more now so wow thanks Jim buddy we needed to spend more in taxes huh he is a moron radical.
Businesses won't hire because of their fear of this kooky government we have. Government schemes to take more money from business and the general pop. and redistribute under the guise of a government program, or "see what government can do for you" are nothing less marxist. Remember, the only money government has, is the money it takes from our pocket. CUT TAXES.
@frankftw The Bush tax cuts were cuts across the board plus tax on interest, dividends, capitol gains and estate tax. Also child tax credits that effect every poor and middle income family. The far left Dems said two years ago they did not want to extend them because they need them for their big government agenda. It makes me wander if they are stalling and trying to blame republicans so they can let them expire. It is their plan to fundamentally change America to a nanny state.

Max "Tax" needs to leave the Senate now, he's been there for years and has a lot of power. Too much power for such an idiot and disgrace.
