The two political parties are fighting to the death over $32 billion.
That is the amount our government would garner from not extending the Bush tax cuts to people earning over $200,000.
$32 billion into a $1500 billion deficit, or 2%........, problem solved, economy fixed!
The Democrats would let taxes rise on all Americans, just to get their hands on $32 billion?
Have we all gone mad, or are both parties using this as a distraction?
For the life of me, I don't know why the Republicans don't give up these miniscule monies, to shine a light on this farce.
