Our understanding of what we consider 'middle class' will substantially erode by spring of 2012.

Yes by all means raise taxes on the brink of another recession. Another brilliant idea from the left.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('nobodypanic', 'i')t can't work that way. if europe cuts back, then aggregate demand falls, and capital will be unable to outpace the declining rate of profit. capital accumulation will then become unprofitable and the system will go into crisis.

capitalism is the worse system you can have going into peak-oil. note, i am not suggesting we have reached that hard physical limit yet.

[Cog]

Since the left believes deficits don't matter aka Pops, then we should just borrow and spend some additional trillions to give everyone a job. No reason to raise taxes when we can simply wish money into exisistence.

By the way anyone who supports increased taxes is a leftist regardless of his wealth. Buffet is more than welcome to send a check to the Treasury if he feels undertaxed.

[Cog]

Since the cry of the mooch class, with some support from their rich benefactors like Buffet and Soros, continue to echo the call for taxing the rich, I have to ask myself why. It can't be to balance the budget since deficits don't matter as Obama has proved quite clearly. It must be the classic redistribution of wealth scheme favored by the Marxists and their ilk.

I thought we had dispensed with such foolish thinking in the 2010 elections. But I suppose it will take a Texan in 2012 to bury such nonsense where it belongs. In the tomb of bad ideas.

I anxiously await Obama's secret plan to create jobs. He is rapidly running out of time to save the economy before he becomes part of it.

[Satori]

I anxiously await Rick Perry's plan to create jobs

hope he doesn't try and recreate his "Texas Miracle"

the country couldn't take it

[Cog]

Are you referring to Texas creating 40% of the jobs this country has gained since Obama became president? Is that the miracle of which you speak? It could be a worse resume compared the one established by the Teleprompter-In-Chief.

[prajeshbhat]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('joewp', 'C')og, you're under an misconception. We don't "wish" money into existence, we borrow it into existence. That's why the federal government has to keep going into more and more debt, because if it didn't, the money supply would decrease drastically (by a factor of about $10 for each $1 of government debt).
