I am not worried about paying more, I think our rates are too low but
that is not the way this has been sold. People are being told the Bush
tax cuts only benefited the rich. That is a lie

Sorry, but you're just wrong. See previous comment.


Are you talking about "the Bush tax cuts" or some "to be announced"
new plan? We don't have a clue what the new plan will be until it is
passed and signed but we do know what happens if they simply let the
current cuts expire.

It is like the people who are slapping each other on the back over the
Fin Ref without actually knowing what is in the bill. I am sure in a
year or two we will be hearing about bad things that were slipped into
this bill at the last minute, like Bob's rant about the Commodity
"reform" that allowed these problems in the first place.

Which no one is talking about doing. Nice try.


You were talking about the Bush tax cuts and part of that is the 10%
bracket that will also go away if congress simply lets them expire.
Anything else is new legislation we have not seen.
I was just giving you examples of other unseen legislation that did
not actually do what it said it would.

Unseen? Even the somewhat financial reform legislation that passed is better
than what was there before.
