![]() Does anybody else think that instead of "2013", the message should say "Your taxes just went up" ?

![]() I'm glad this is personal rather than political.
Maybe we should have a Personal Thread where people can bash each other for no other reason than one's love of being right over the wrong? After all we know who's right, right?

![]() the good news is that begining jan 1st through the magic of perception what was once voting for a major tax increase suddenly becomes supporting a reduction in your taxes.
and with the benefit of not having to run for re-election as supporters of a tax increase, the new congress will resolve this shortly after jan 4th. the only real story coming out of all this is that there was a chance for some of the spending reductions republicans wanted in the offers made two weeks ago. by rejecting those as "not enough" they'll wind up voting for a bill that has virtually none. i don't think that's good for the country and wish we could start to deal with some of the structural problems while the solutions are manageble. but when republicans steadily overplay a poor hand (as they've done since november) it's almost impossible to see how that's going to happen. |

i read an article the other day about what falling over the cliff really means. it's more of a door threshold at your door then a cliff. and i'd rather the 'temporary' cuts end for all, rather than be extended for all.
