And the spending cuts get kicked down the road....again!
Yes it got kicked down the road but this country just elected a president that will not budge on spending in a way that is to our liking. That being said, I pay tens of thousands in federal taxes as it is and am glad that the rates will not go up with this agreement. I can’t afford it.
“And the spending cuts get kicked down the road....again!”
Exactly. Haven’t seen anything about any CUTS!
If you are referring to the Sequestration cuts, that is not stated in the linked article, nor can I find any news source that confirms that. We all know Entitlement reform is off the table - that was yesterday's news. However, every single new source I have read has said that the Democrats get every goodie they wanted, from unemployment billions for the layabouts, to tuition breaks for the "poor", to new taxes, but nothing about preventing the gutting of the Dept of Defense.
Go listen to the 'Evil One's news presser. He said they dealt with spending LAST YEAR and THIS DEAL will now affect the TAX SIDE.
And any FUTURE SPENDING CUT's will need to include TAX INCREASES as well.
He truly is Satan ...
And spending is the problem, under taxing is not.
How do they fix the spending problem? Force the tax slaves to work harder, longer, and faster (but don't anyone dare touch the bounty of the freeloaders) and spend some more money on government unions (like giving them $900 pay raises). That should fix just about everything, right? We should be out of debt by Monday!
And the spending cuts get kicked down the road....again!

Obama isn’t going to cut spending now or in the future. There will simply be more excuses and fear mongering by Democrats (e.g., they’re going to shut down the national parks!) to avoid having to take meaningful actions to stop the runaway spending. The debt ceiling debate will be an even bigger farse than the fiscal cliff.
