Over the past 10 years, the country has spent more than $400 billion just servicing the debt created by the cuts. Tax collections have plunged to their lowest share of the economy in 60 years. Between 2002 and 2007, employment increased by less than 1 percent when the economy was supposed to be expanding. Employment growth barely kept pace with population growth. Between the end of 2001, when the country was in a recession, and the peak of the real estate bubble, er, economic expansion in 2007, the US economy performed worse than at any time since the end of World War II. Median weekly earnings fell more than 2 percent between 2001 and 2007. Meanwhile, people making over $3 million a year, who account for just 0.1 percent of taxpayers, got an average tax cut of $520,000, more than 450 times what the average middle-income family received. ---------- and the right wing tells us how WONDERFUL this is...the rich are getting richer...the middle class, worthless scum that they are, are paying for it. as god intended. Where do you get this BS. Bush was not presiand dent in 2009 and 2010...unless of course he looked like Obama. As for debt spend, Obama has already added much more debt than Bush did in 8 years, problem is Obama isn't even through his first, and hopefully last term. Tax collections are low because producers are not making any money and with 8 million lost jobs off of 2006 Congress starting, plus replacement jobs are crap, well, you don't make it you don't get taxed on it. Bet a lot of people would love to go back to the 2002 and 2006 employment type stats. You know, before democratic congress of 2006 botched it up. There was no expansion in 2007, that is when the Congress was screwing with interest rates and market liquidity dried up. Hey, why should I lend money for nothing but a load of risk? Funny, and the top 20% of earners pay 80% of the taxes. So do you mean there is revenue in those 80% of the turnips? I know were you got your stupid... suggestion: stop banging your head on the wall so much. Pay your taxes boy. Oh, forget, you are a broke loser. Just hind sucking. I know you have trouble distinguishing gender... perhaps you can find your man parts if you look really hard. |

You are arguing with yourself now HAHAHAH you kind of forgot obama proposed a tax cut ONLY for those making less than 250K oh. the right wing hides that There was not a veto proof support for the extension These are now the Obama tax cuts. uh no. he proposed ONLY a tax cut for the middle class The tax cuts on the 250k and over people are only 18% of the total deal, virtually insignificant. Obama's 14% drop in the FICA tax costs over twice what that would have given us back. ummm...if they're insignifican why does ALL GOP policy focus on cutting their taxes? if the amount is so small, why does the GOP refuse to cut taxes unless they're rincluded?? |

Eviscerate the middle class and the poor, and leave the rich alone. and let the middle class take it on the chin...as is usual when the GOP is involved. Make up your mind.

It's not insignificant. It's a great start.

They are idiots too. We really needed Obama to veto the whole renewal bill And the result would have been even more pain for people least able to handle it. |

Actually if you consider the GOP to be "Wall Street", they have controlled the White House ever since 1981. Who wasn't a Wall street guy since then? Reagan was probably the least affected by the Wall street people of the whole bunch. Bush Clinton Bush& Obama all had the revolving door financial team from Wall Street to the government and back to Wall Street, rinse repeat. agreed. the right has engineered the US political process so it's the best money can buy As long as you believe the democratic leadership is also "right wing" we agree. There are still a half dozen wall street insiders advising Obama Crooks and tax evaders too. He really knows how to pick em. |

There fixed it for ya fleabagger. Not much has changed in 3 years either other than bankrupcies and foreclosures of Americans are at an all time high. Keep up voting for fleabaggers and ruin the American dream for a generation or two. Best estimates I have is even f turned around now, it might last 10 years. Borderline hopeless, that the US is bankrupt just that the gavel hasn't struck yet. Yep, hopelessness and chumps. It is an Obamanation and legacy. -CSE's that bankrupted the economy those are actions they were done by the right wing. so i have facts you have fairy tales -- Government isn't the solution to the bad economy, it is the problem. |
