One thing at a time. Now that the middle tax rates are PERMANENT, the democraps just can’t let them expire as was possible with Bush’s law. If they try to increase the rates, it will be a transparent tax increase.

I am disappointed over the lack of spending cuts just as you are. But the repubs will have more leverage to do that in 2 months during the debt ceiling imbroglio coming up. I will be mad as hell if the repubs cave in then. For the time being, I am happy with the FC bill as passed.

You're right that the bill isn't all that bad (except for not addressing the spending cuts issue but that is still ahead)

A whole slew of people were saved from the tax hikes that Obama wanted ($450,000 and under). And the middle class was protected permanently..originally we must remember that Democrats fought Bush even on those tax cuts.

Obama gave in pretty significantly on estate taxes. Surprised to see that.

The fight goes on.
