Oh, yeah? Buncha economic idiots. Increase taxes like this and watch me and millions of others tell Obama to stuff it, as we stop generating taxable activity. I can coast for a couple years. Can Obama's revenues take the hit? “(These CBO numbers assume no negative economic feedback impact from higher taxes.)”

I can coast for a couple years. Can Obama’s revenues take the hit?

Despite having taxes in the health care plan, the administration is quick to say they are not tax increases. I think he would let all of the tax cuts expire if it was a day after winning re-election, but not before.
