You "suggest" things when talking in generalities but if the GOP put a bill like you mention above you would be leading the granny-over-cliff brigade. Again, Obama's own commission recommended 4/1 cuts to tax increases but when he won in 2012 he demanded no spending cuts be added to his tax increase. Boehner offered 1/1. You, dee, blueboy and others were reminded of this and you whored out as usual.Shows how little you pay attention.
Remember, I am the person who suggested that tax rates should be tied directly to spending. The more you want to spend, the more you must be willing to raise taxes. Likewise, if you want to cut taxes, you must cut spending. It's easy to spend when there is no responsibility or pain associated.
