Yes we go over the cliff. Our Taxes go up.
Visualize this : After taxes go up thanks to this defeat Voters scream at Republicans for raising their taxes, as with the FICA standoff a year ago..
EVENTUALLY Republicans are willing to pass anything to reverse even part of it as with the Budget control act.
See once the taxes go up and people notice it then any bill passed even to $100K is a tax cut, so the GOP can accept any piece of crap O demands.
But you are right, the details have yet to unfold.
“After taxes go up thanks to this defeat Voters scream at Republicans for raising their taxes...”
The Republicans will not be any more vulnerable than the Dems.
Let the Obama supporters pay their fair share. Even the leeches and infinite, habitual ones on unemployment. Nothing gets their attention faster than winding down the welfare state.
