It's not like I'm surprised. I am quite aware of the inverse relationship between the time Obama has left in his term and the intensity in the manner in which he conjures up new ways to make life as onerous, demeaning, burdensome, punishing, threatening to Americans, America and its way of life.

Uh, tax rates, breaks and so, are enacted in law. He can’t change them. Procedures and policies, sure, but not rates (which breaks are part of).

BTW, we’re not powerless you know, despite how many seem to think. WE have a Constitution. It belongs to US.
Through our states we can nullify each and every unconstitutional federal act. Don’t have to wait to do that.
In the longer term, we can process change through a Convention of States and enforceable constitutional amendments.
It is up to US.

The House and Senate are known moral cowards. Moral cowards are physical cowards. What does Obama have to fear?

Does the GOP care? They will just cave and nothing worthwhile in this defunct Republican Party in Washington. Tax payers care? Most too damn dumb to care as long as the communists Democrats hand them cash. America is finished.

And the last Executive Order turned out to NOT be an EO, or have much in the way of teeth, but it certainly got a lot of freepers going.
Words mean things, people. An EO is an EO. Period.

“Closing these tax breaks would raise $100 billion in a decade”
Nullified by the concurrent loss in revenue as businesses shrink operations, move operations overseas, and employee numbers shrink.
So their projected revenue from this will likely actually be in negative integers.

Obama needs to be impeached, convicted, and removed from office just to reestablish the co equal branches of government. Politics and everything else will have to take the hindmost.

Obola should just disband the ceremonial Congress.
It would save America a lot of money.
They are proven useless,
utter liars, and 110% self-serving.

It’s okay, with unemployment as low as it is now we can afford to lose a few jbs. We all know it won’t affect the unemployment rate.

Thank you for referencing that article lbryce. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.
senior White House correspondent with Fox News, .."
Were probably never going to hear Obama guard dog Fx News mention that the Supreme Court has clarified limits on Congresss power to appropriate taxes. More specifically, the Court had indicated that Congress is prohibited from laying taxes in the name of state power issues, essentially any issue which Congress cannot justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limted powers.
Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States. Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
Thomas Jefferson had reflected on this issue.
"The States should be left to do whatever acts they can do as well as the General Government." --Thomas Jefferson to John Harvie, 1790.
The best step towards putting a stop to constitutionally indefensible federal taxes, imo, is to repeal the ill-conceived 17th Amendment.

Why doesn’t the House and Senate just issue contradictive “Legislative Orders” and we can choose which we want to follow.

Aw, Geez. Another Executive Fatwa.
It could slow down commerce. But like Uncle Warren, these entities will simply not pay until they are forced. it could take years, but in the meanwhile......
