    The tax cuts are going to add TRILLIONS to the deficit. If taxes aren't brought back to a realistic level, the country will end up broke. So no, those tax cuts won't be renewed, to do so would he suicidal.

    If I don't give you something, it doesn't mean I'm stealing from you.

    Unemployment numbers, more taxpayers fewer government dependents, CBO just upped the GDP projections more growth more tax revenues just to name two. I have no obligation to keep repeating myself. Now refute what I post instead of your inane post directed at no one.

    You do know we had more than double the capital gains tax revenues at the Bush43 15% rate than the Clinton 29% rate? You do know that after the Gingrich/Kaisch tax rate cuts we hit a double digit tax revenue increase and after the Bush43 tax rate cut we hit a record 15% tax revenue increase.

    The left only understands the depressive/anti-growth affects of taxation when it is applied to things they want to stop, such as tobacco, ammunition, alcohol, fossil fuels, etc.

    The INCREASED REVENUES, through ECONOMIC GROWTH, spurred by INCREASED INVESTMENT, spurred by TAX CUTS, totally confuses them.

    Hmm.
    March tax revenues 6 billion less than March last year.
    It should have gone up 9.5 billion due to wage growth. So just a little 15 billion problem for last month on the heals of a 20 billion problem in Feb..

    Don't understand how income taxes are paid?

    The cuts are less than a year old...NEXT MARCH will be quite different.

    special pleading in a vacuum? whence Any deficits or debt, if cutting taxes, pays for it.

    Why? Providing for the general welfare is in our Constitution, providing for the common Offense and general Warfare, is not. Especially, if Congress refuses to pay for it with, necessary and Proper, Tax Rates.

    Yes, we all pay taxes our whole lives.

    But not giving you something is not the same as stealing from you.
