Obama’s and his minions’ fault.
They increased spending by 25% and increased deficit spending by 100% in expectation of then saying “well, we need more taxes”.
But most everyone w/ a brain knows that the spending has to be cut - the spending Obama created.
If taxing “the rich” at a higher marginal rate increases tax revenues to the extent that .25% of debt is covered but prevents job creators from hiring or investing then what is the gain?
The dems hold the bag b/c they overspent [most recently and most spectacularly] expecting taxes to follow. It is not acceptable to them to reduce the spending they just jammed thru. Their worldview has no place for reality - only for their view of “fairness” ie redistributing.
So, obama and the dems don’t care about the economy, they care about redistributing resources - hence their insistence on increasing taxes to the detriment of the economy and job growth.
Freakin’ idiots.
How about the SPENDING LIBERAL and MARXISTS - and RINOs - in Congress created since 1964.
It is NOT all ZERO's fault (but he didn't help)
