In May, conservative economist Martin Feldstein, who was President
Reagan's top economic adviser and now sits on Obama's recovery
advisory board, wrote in a Wall Street Journal commentary that while
he favors temporarily extending the cuts for everyone, the country
can't afford to make them permanent.

Why not? Exxon paid no US taxes. Our Taxes are needed to fuel their
development and to pay for their gambling sprees and bailouts.
Can you see this bunch in Switzerland or some other efuge laughing their
asses off and rolling in our tax money.
