While some of my RINO friends like Dave Mance are more than willing (so they say) to pay higher taxes, I sure don't want to make up the difference that the expiration of these rates will bring....The lowest rate will go from 10 to 15%....That's a 50% increase.....
The problem with sunset legislation is that these rates are the norm...They are the current rates...and saying things will go back to 1999 levels is not credible.......It is a tax hike after that period of time.
I am content to just keep spending and not be at all responsible for the deficit. After all, what's the visible consequence of the current spending spree ? Haven't seen anything so bad so far.
I will gladly keep my current tax rate in exchange for extending unemployment forever.

unemployment checks forever -- that's taking the bull by the horns. The financial equivalent of not in my back yard.
Unenjoyment checks should run until recipient finds a job or dies. Whichever come first. We're the only "civilized" country where checks run out. After 52 weeks just roll it over to the welfare rolls, 'cuz it's obvious there are no jobs.
EvilJam,
I hope you are attempting to be humerous. I would hate to think you really believe in all this crap you are constantly spewing. A large majority of those who "can't find work" don't want to find work. My wife works at one of the box stores. Time and time again, welfare recipients who are hired work a few days and then purposely get caught stealing a pack of gum or some simlier item so they can get fired and back on the welfare roles. They are smart enough to know they won't get prosecuted for such a small item but will get fired. What about all the "single" mothers giving birth nowdays? They stay single because they can get more benifits than they can if they are married. Do you actually think those lazy worthless pieces of crap deserve unending benifits? If you do, why are you even living in this country? You can move to about anywhere else on Earth and be living in your version of Utopia.
Maybe Dave and Dede could start a new party and call it the hypocrite party.
Remember Dede was pro card-check but none of her defunct Hackettes stores were union…go figure.
Now we have Dave looking to raise income tax rates when he probably has very little income. Instead he probably pays the much lower capital gains rate when he sells some of his next egg as needed to maintain his standard of living.
Don’t forget that once they go back to 39.6% you still got to give 8% to the governor. That is a total of 47.6 %
Unless you count FICA and Medicare of 7.65%
Which Obama wants to take the cap off
Now we are talking 55.25%
But wait! There is more!
If you are self employed you get to pay self-employment tax.
That’s 62.9%
That means you get to keep 37.1% of your money.
Unless your Golisano and move to Florida to get out of the stupid state tax.
Sounds good Dave!
9:52 Yes, Evul does believe people should get Free Stuff forever no matter what the circumstances. He also has no regard for the people who work to pay the taxes to make sure this remains so. He's a perfect party line Democrat. Have you not been reading his wisdom? He makes no secret of his act.
Dave likes Obamacare, but like Dannie gets his free from his wife who is employed as a teacher. They will get it free for life. We will be happy to pay for it.
I'm sure he's now a resident of Florida, so he will pay no income tax. That'll help, won't it, Dave?
Let the tax cuts expire. Time to make the fat cats pay.
7:01,
Yes I know you are right, but I was at least trying to be polite and give Evil the benifit of the doubt. It is the worhshipers of the Free Stuff who keep the Dems in power.
