” RE :WaPo/ABC poll: Six in ten favor raising taxes on $250K+ households for fiscal-cliff solution
6 in 10??
That’s not Romney’s 47%, thats 60%.
Romney was off by 13%”
This shows how dumbed-down the American people have become.
Taxes from this will pay for 1 or 2 days of government. Jobs will be lost. Hiring will be curtailed. So the tax will have a net negative benefit on the economy.
The bigger longer term risk is that after these taxes (over $250K) go up if there is no obvious deterioration of the economy that voters notice and instead the economy appears to improve.
If that happens then it is all over for Republicans, they might as well let Dems run un-opposed because no-one will ever believe them again.
After he signs it there better be a economic crash or its Hillary/Omalley in 2017.
