<<<<<As for the economic effects of all this, my own guess is that, while the market may go down some, the actual effect on the economy will be gradual. Much time for correction. >>>>>

I hope you are right. An economy that is just barely struggling to stay our of recession won't take much though to drop it back into another recession. .........I'm not sure the right is supporting the "rich" as much they are an ideology that has as much to do with fundamental christians and their hatred for Obama. Wasn't it Kristol who said let the tax rates for the rich go up, after all half the rich are democrats. I really think the politics of it are more of a pissing match between the two sides than it is looking for a solution for the country.

"Thus, the Reps are only defending the rich. They lose and badly on the politics of that. "

..and it's so OBVIOUS. They don't even try to hide it. They've been accused of being the "party of the rich" forever, and it's apparently TRUE.
