Here is response #1 to that link posted "They disproportionately favored the rich. The peons got a little taste too, so they wouldn't revolt. Remember the $300 checks? Those were to mollify the middle class while the rich people ran off with all the money."

Democrat = party of class warfare and food stamps.

I doubt they hire Democrats. I don’t. A nice interview, easy way to tell without asking outright. If I find out they are, their hours get cut until they quit.

[mojitojoe]

If those are real, you are looking at around 500K.

[GlockThe Vote]

Its too late for that. I believe we are finished.

You see it even on this site how stupid most people are with regard to the PONZI nation we have become.

[TexasFreeper2009]

great, this will serve as one last reminder of why we voted these idiots out of office, and what would of happened if we hadn't.

This is a win, since it will die in the senate, and every minute they spend on this is a minute less they will spend on anything else before the witch is brought down.

[GlockThe Vote]

Both parties are running a ponzi scheme.

"How can they pass a middle class tax cut extension, when the Bush cuts were only for the rich in the first place?" LOL

[screaminsunshine]

They still believe the ‘good cops’. Anyone in the Federal System is just flailing trying to keep the scam going. I have no faith in it.

One is the buffoon Ron Paul

Shouldn't it read... HOUSE VOTES TO INCREASE TAXES BY BILLIONS

I despise every freedom-stealing, country-destroying thing Democrats do these days.

The Progressive Change Campaign Committee, a liberal group that has repeatedly attacked President Obama on the left, is airing an ad demanding that he not agree to any compromise with the GOP that would extend tax cuts for household incomes above $250,000 a year.

It shows Obama in 2007 declaring that "we will also allow the temporary Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans to expire." Text at the end says, "Keep Your Promise. Fight, Don't Cave, On Tax Cuts."

You seem to be a likely candidate for “reeducation classes!”

Dems Vote Tax Increase on Job Creators

Job creators have more money.

It's only fair that they pay more.

If they paid the same percentage as a proclaimed poor person they would have too much power.

We should allow poor people to have 2 votes each to 1 vote each for the rich.

Hopefully we will have this some day and our system will finally be fair and just for every one equally.

[EGPWS]

How can they pass a middle class tax cut extension, when the Bush cuts were only for the rich in the first place?

Because then it was only for the rich and today it's needed for the middle class.

It's the only hope for political survival for democrat's.

Little over $250K?
If “little” is $10k ($260k total), you’re looking at a difference of $300.
$25k ($275k total), $750
$50k ($300k total), $1,500
$100k ($350k total), $3,000
$200k ($450k total), $6,000
$250k ($500k total), $7,500

*IF* you’re “little over” is even double the original figure, you’re looking at maybe having to let a high-school part-timer go.

Now as a small business owner myself, I’m not saying I’ll be happy to fork over any of my hard-earned money but if this amount breaks you to the point that you lose employees, you shouldn’t even be in business. Any one who operates their business with such a small % allowance for change in overhead is a piss-poor money manager.
