Boner Takes a Stand!
In other words, the countdown clock to a full cave has started.
I listened to Boehner yesterday, and I think he did OK.
He said that Obama has been saying he wants to tax millionaires and billionaires, so Boehner said he agreed to taxing millionaires and above.
Personally, I think it was necessary and shrewd use of the media, and it shielded almost everyone included in the Bush tax cuts. (If I had my druthers, I’d raise taxes to 1% on everyone not now paying income tax, even if they do pay payroll taxes, because everyone should have some skin in the game.)
I think under Boehner’s plan that 99.3% of Americans get to keep their Bush tax cuts.
Ideally, we’d get rid of all income taxes and go to the Fair Tax, but it doesn’t look like that dream is gonna happen in my lifetime.
