others have already pointed out, their are ways taxes can be added. (Grover Norquist himself, said repealing the Bush tax cuts, is NOT a tax increase, freeing those who made the no-tax pledge.
dollar for dollar cuts?
it raises the cap by 2.8 TRILLION.
and the National Debt
INCREASES over the next 10 years by 9 TRILLION !!!!!!!!!
this bankrupts the country.
please, look at these two charts, comparing Russia, with their recovery FROM socialism with their flat tax,
and our entry TO socialism, with our Marxist President:

look at the USA chart, which is bad enough.
...then add another 9 TRILLION in debt.
current revenues BALANCE with the 2006 budget.
would it be so hard to simply return to that,
instead of the nightmare of Obama’s spending ?
if the GOP did NOTHING, the OBAMA would have to CUT
spending, to HIS followers. THEY would put pressure on him.
WH spokesman Carney, ADMITTED this.
it would CRUMBLE Obama’s support, and guarantee his defeat.
Instead, we hand Obama everything he needs, and put the USA another 9 TRILLION in debt.
...so we can say “we won, there are no new taxes”...
for now.
I agree Elendur, and this is not a win for the Republicans no matter how they try and paint the picture. And it’s certainly a loose for the people. These cuts are “nothing” for the size of the overall debt. To even imagine 12 men in a room are going to agree to cuts for the good of the public? Not going to happen...they are all open for blackmail of the worst kind for what they might determine.
Worse is Obama....I said he’d put on his hero cap and come into this, he’s holding his Ace’s and will use them...come out smelling like a rose. I hate him.
