"With the biggest hike on the "rich" in decades, we're ensuring two things: a) The rich remain a very exclusive club. b) The number of rich people in this country shrinks, leaving behind only the super-rich." Do you think a 3 point hike in end rate tax from 36-39 will change anything at all in this demand side recession? Do you think hiking cap gains 5 points in an era where there is nothing but extensive carryover losses will have any real effect? You are drinking the coolaid Ten. Nobody wants tax hikes on anyone but its the only extra revenue available at this time if you want a rev neutral tax cut for middle and lower income. Thank Man---what worked before is not working.
