(Hahahaha!!!) How the @#$% do they KNOW that!? Lies, lies, lies, and more lies, layered and sprinkled with more lies....

Operative word conveniently omitted

“much”

"The report by the authoritative non-partisan arm of Congress"

Either this "non-partisan" (snort) office is populated by retards or overeducated Keynesians, for which there is scarcely a difference.

When tax cuts are stopped is it really a tax increase or really a return to the tax rates of when the tax cuts were implemented?

[Oldeconomybuyer]

200,000 jobs isn’t “much”? These people have e’fing families, mortgages, car payments, need to eat and care for their children!

[mike_9958]

how can it kill growth ?

there isn’t any growth now. It’ll just kill any remaining hope of growth for small businesses.

Parse the meaning correctly

[NYRepublican72]

Assuming the CBO is telling the truth (which it isn’t), where but in the mind of a liberal MSM hack is the loss of 200,000 jobs not significant? Tell that to those 200,000 families that will have to rely on the welfare state to put food on the table,

How about the 47% that PAY NO FEDERAL INCOME TAXES PAY SOMETHING??????? Hello????? EVERYONE needs some SKIN IN THE GAME!!!

” would not hurt U.S. economic growth much”

The Bush Tax were passed as a bundle so let them die as a bundle.

[RichInOC]

You see the words “wealthy Americans” and think the folks in the Forbes 400 issue. The government sees those words and thinks folks making 250 grand a year.

“...Do I really need to say it?”

[PMAS]

When my taxes go up to 39.5, my spending and investments go down - it is that simple.

[skeeter]

The same CBO that told us the Affordable Healthcare Act would cost under $900 billion?

Hilarious.

[LibLieSlayer]

The cbo has absolutley no credibility with the American people. The economy is passing up their lies... on its way to hell.

"CBO said the tax hikes for the wealthy would reduce job growth by around 200,000 jobs, much less than the 700,000 in job losses claimed by Republican Speaker of the House John A. Boehner."

It's bad, but not as bad as we thought.

How can you kill something that's already dead?

[tflabo]

The CBO propaganda memo not playing too well with the John Galt Society. Jobs are dropping off like the stock market.

[Son House]

would not hurt U.S. economic growth much in 2013 because there isn't going to be any growth to hurt.

[PLMerite]

IIRC the CBO only processes the numbers it is given by whomever requested the calculations. If the numbers are provided by Dhims then it’s all rainbows and skittles. If by RINOs then either rainbows or skittles, not both.

You know....Intrade should do these projections /sarc. or not
