As of midnight New Years Eve there will be a return to a previous tax structure. What about this does the President not understand? The reason this is going to happen is because the Republicans are unable to save the Middle Class and the USA economy. What does the President not understand about that?
The Bush Tax Cuts expiring on New Years Eve at midnight is going to happen. There needs to be tax reform. There has needed to be tax reform for years now. I do believe President Obama convened a tax review lead by Simpson-Bowles. It was rejected and that was a mistake. It was a huge mistake and as of midnight on New Year's Eve the Bush Tax Cuts will expire.
We have a National Debt. Maybe the Republicans haven't noticed. That is possible. The Republicans live in a parallel universe. They sincerely do and the fact there are issues with a dysfunctional House of Representatives is the direct fault of the American people. They had a chance to address this problem and haven't. I suppose the question arises whether they can adequately address the problem in their own ability to discern the truth, but, it is the problem of the people.
The Bush Tax Cuts will expire and if the President plays with that reality it would be huge mistake. The tax structure of the USA needs to be reworked. Until now the leadership on this issue sucks! The elected in DC have viewed this issue as a 'toy of politics.' Hello? When the Bush Tax Cuts expire and the sequester begins reducing the National Debt, the country will begin to understand the impact of a Dysfunctional House of Representatives that continue to return to settled law, including the sequester, as a plan for political fodder.
No more. That is the lesson of the 2012 elections. The Middle Class is no longer the hostage to the Plutocrats and their supporters, namely the Republican Party. We are not hostages. The President forgets how the Republicans view the Middle Class as the 'beast of burden' to their political outcomes. The Middle Class is not a priority of the GOP. The GOP deceive and lie and gerrymander to manipulate the will of the people.
The Nation is more than government. We have lives. We need to demand change in our society. We need to demand higher wages, paid benefits and vacation time. We need to demand the forty hour work week mean something again. It means nothing today. There is a lot that has to happen in the USA and it is not all about government and government control.
Now when the Bush Tax Cuts expire the national debt will finally begin to be addressed. What has to occur is for Americans to be Americans. They have to demand better products manufactured in the USA. They have to demand better wages to counter the higher tax rates. They have to return to being the people their parents and grandparents used to be. They need to demand huge profits to stockholders be converted to 'a living wage.'
The Bush Tax Cuts are going to expire on New Years Eve and the sequester is going to begin. It is up to Americans to handle their social structure in a way that empowers them. Is there something about that the President doesn't understand? He needs to be the leader of the Executive Branch that will empower the Middle Class to achieve their status again.
What's so hard about this?
We have bills to pay.
We need a new tax structure to empower the Middle Class.
Warren is correct. It is time the people get on with their agenda to empower their lives and pay down the national debt. The Republicans have been unable to govern the country for years now. Decades even. It is the job of the Democrats to point to the reality of this folly and continue to push the nation in the right direction. What else is there to do? More bartering with the future of our children? No. The time has come for the country to stop the manipulation of the GOP and begin a government that facilitates their lives and the promise of their country.
The USA is a representative democracy by majority. It should mean something. The problem is the elected Republicans don't care about the majority of this country once they are 'over the hump' of being elected. That is a reality and it has to change. If the American people are unable to solve their problems because the House is unable to govern it is their responsibility to change that. Americans can do this, it is time they did.
Warren Buffet (click here) could well be the most fascinating American of this or any generation. Combining common sense and shrewd calculation, his rock-star status in the financial markets is earned. Lately, the second-richest man in the United States has been surprisingly vocal on the subject of taxes, and when Buffett speaks, it’s wise to listen.'

Wall Street and Washington were both abuzz Monday after Buffett published a national column that essentially mocked the idea that higher tax rates on capital gains discourage investment. According to Buffett, legislators should increase taxes on those earning more than $500,000, including minimum rates of at least 30 percent on all income above $1 million....
