My post on another thread which is pertinent to this one...
Obama is setting precedent and we should take that ball and run with it. According to him and the rest of the socialists, it is perfectly okay to pick one segment of society who is doing better than the rest and tax them to death.
So which segment of society do you see getting a larger and larger piece of the pie? GOVERNMENT WORKERS. They make more than their private sector counterparts and they have much better benefits and job security. Excluding the Post Office, there are 2,000,000 federal workers. Tax them an extra $1,000 a year and we’re up $2,000,000,000. Tax them $10,000 for that cushy government job and we’re up $20,000,000,000. Do this to all state, county, and city workers and we’ll be rolling in dough because pretty soon no one will want a government job and government will shrink by necessity.

Our elected representatives are the ones who would have to ‘run with it’. Let me know when you find some who have the cajones.
