Its high time for the regular Joe and others to start feeling the effects of the perpetual Statist (Democrat and Republican) regimes. The road needs to end and the can stopped. Everyone, not just the millionaires need to start paying for the crap they continue to vote for.
Defense cuts + tax increases will bring down the deficit to in the short term. Barry will demand new “Obama tax cuts” in January and the GOP will go along. No regular joes in the middle class will feel anything additional in the short term by going over the cliff and the dims will have their permanent defense cuts.
Barry would love nothing better than to push us over the cliff with the GOP clinging to their no taxes pledge. Why do you want to give that to him? Far better for the House to just pass some “Obama Plan” tax increases and let the dims be proven frauds.
Either way I think we are headed over the cliff. This really this is just about posturing and framing the debate for the future.
But then all the Republicans need to do is say “let’s pay for these tax cuts” with real cuts.
