you do know hoover was before fdr, dont you? You do know that stopping the spending programs is different than raising taxes on the more well to do to pay for some of this. You do know that not all the bush tax cuts are going, right? 1.you will get a small end rate increase 2,you will get a rise from 15% on dividends and cap gains to 20%, if that goes up at all given the circumstances 3. you will get no death to the death tax but considerably higher exclusions and lower rates which will start in last year of bush tax parameters. 4. and you do know that rates for lower end will be lowered, not raised, and that money multiplies faster in the system as it is all spent rather than cuts at the top rates. Has anyone here taken eco 101?
