Right...the GOP leadership needs to tell him no thanks...we’re working a spending reduction plan. This bi-partisan commission is a trap to get as many Republicans as possible to sign on to some kind of tax increase.
If he was smart, now would be the time to put forward a fair tax plan that would satisfy all or at least most. Pubs have proven that more revenue is generated when taxes are low, but the dems have a hammer to hit them over the head with capital gains. There has to be some level of taxation there. Too many on wall street get out of paying taxes on big money.
