The CBO estimates suggest the 20% of households with the lowest incomes might see their taxes rise by $412.

If you're in the middle 20% of income levels -- between $39,791 and $64,484 -- the average increase would be $1,984. If you're in the top 20%--$108,267 or above -- the CBO is estimating an average increase of $14,173.

If you're in the top 1%-- with income above $506,210 -- the average increase might be about $120,500.



The threat of the cliff is the result of Congress' inability in 2011 to come up with a package that would satisfy everyone. It came after threats of a government shutdown, a downgrade of U.S. debt by Standard & Poor's and a short, intense panic in financial markets that sent the major stock market averages down.

Is it true that earners making under $250,000 taxes will go up by 279 Billion ?

And those that makeover $250,000 taxes will go up by 53 Billion?

So, what this states is that the US economy will have $279 Billion sucked outof it? This is the biggest consumer spending block in the world!!!

Now, what else it states is that the foreign economies world wide will see a decreasein investments by 53 Billion?

Americans need to vote asap! If we allow these either legitimately dumb republicans or acting dumb Republicans out of office then America as we know it will not exist any longer.

So,how does a supposed conservative Republican explain these facts away?

So, the American economy will suffer a 279 Billion dollar defeciet?

While Republicans hold out for foreign interests of the 53 Billion that will be their defeciet due to Americas wealthy not being able to invest these Billions oversees?

The truth is that the Republicans are worried that the wealthy will not be able to fill their coffers any longer!??

The republican obstructionist should be charges with espionage at this rate!

True change would be to out the US chamber of commerce as a foreign interests and cut all ties!

This would signal true leadership!

If anyone is serious about repairing and strengthening America then stand up and stand for what is right for America!

Hold American corporations accountable!

We need to get out of this greedy stage that CEOs have put America in. They are sick so bad that it is pure evil by any standards!

They shipped American jobs overseas for massive profit and then they invest in other countries?

The malls are empty except for the holidays and wealthy areas. The wealthy actually earned millions due to the fact that millions in America suffered greatly!

The republicans are bluffing as they will not the middle class to suffer greatly. This would be a great win for the democrats if they ruin America by thumbing their corrupt anti American obstructionist republican noses at hard working American majorities! We will dedicate our lives to electing more democrats in big numbers!

Ignoring the middle
Class will destroy the American way instantly!!! The us economy cannot sustain a 279 Billion dollar reduction from the very heart of our consumer market!

Message to the republicans, try our resolve and our numbers!!!!!!!!! We will wake up the monster that republicans always fear and that is the American citizen who we will get to vote!!!!!

Firstly Dumb Ass...

This is the second half of the agreement Obama made with Congress when he insisted that Uncle SAM wasn't in enough debt and we must increase our debt ceiling. You are very conveniently trying to forget that...Obama got his debt increase, now comes the hard part...paying for it.

Secondly you stupid moron...

A household earning $ 38,000 might see a tax increase of $412...a 1% increase in taxation while a $ 50,000 earner might see a 4% increase and a high earner at 5% and the wealthy at 120,000 in new taxes.

Our taxation system is progressive and as you can see, the more money you make, the more money they take.

Obama isn't interested in living up to the bargain he made with Congress for cutting spending and he is even advocating for increasing spending. I don't expect you to understand or care about where the money comes from because you are a sociaety leech.

Please crawl back into your hole...

I think the first thing you need to worry about is getting a job before you can comment on the people who are employed !

Hey moron, you are wrong!!!! But as you were many other times you will not admit to it!!!!

The facts I printed are official facts!!!! Not what you like to hear bit in other words it is the TRUTH !!!!

Before Obama was sworn into president the first term he stayed that EVERY economist has only seen complete collapses and doom for the us economy. Even bush has since stated twice during his only two interviews that the economy was in complete collapses with only dire predictions ahead! You conveniently forget that American economy matched that of
Greece at the end of the bush term!!!!'

You are a complete idiot!!! Please do not vote ever again as you are a complete and utter idiot!!!

You have absolutely no clue at all how the economy works in America! Let me ask you! Say they extend tax cuts for the wealthy but not for people making under 250,000 ? What happens? Explain please???

Now say they extend tax cuts for those making under 250,000 but discontinue the tax cuts for the wealthy what happens????

For example, under the first scenario wallmart and the like will lay off thousands!!!!!

Under the second scenario wallmart/the job creators as you label them hire additional workers!

Please get a glimpse of a ding clue, please!!!!

Our tax system is progressive?

Your mother was a leach that gave birth to you as a result of a drinking binge she was on.

You cannot understand logic at all which you have proven over and over!!!!

Halliburton alone received 53 billion which was spent on two wars and to reconstruct what we blew up!!! Now they are in Dubai with all the other corporate vultures that stole American treasures, fact!!!!!

They were successful alright, they succeeded on depleting the us economy as it will go down as the biggest Hiest of wealth in the worlds history!!!

Is this the anti pot smoker that has plants growing in her yard and garage??? Let me know as the pictures depict as much!!!

My tax plan is this: continue the tax cuts for those making under 250,000 and give them an additional 2 percent cut! Let the tax cuts expire for those making over 250,000. Then increase by one percent for every additional million earned and any and all making over 20 million will pay a 60 percent rate!!

Then close all the loopholes that the wealthy have totally abuse !

Then the government could give grants and loans to pro American start ups!!!!!

Lynch won't go get a job...he will just find another way to scam. He is a convicted felon and a murderer, so I expect very little from him.

I expect him to advocate for the people that contribute the least into the system, but expect the most from the system. That is his MO and he has been a leech on society for so long, that is all he knows.

Lynch...discussing anything of any importance with you is a lost cause because you have no friggin clue how a proper system is supposed to function. Your view is colored by your need to TAKE from a system and expect others to be resposible for keeping the system alive. You are the worst kind of American.

Daily Horoscope for May 25

Virgo

You have energy to burn today and it needs positive outlets, otherwise you'll be rather ratty and impatient. You want to work on activities that will show you in a good light, and you'll be annoyed if anyone objects to what you're doing or points out where you're going wrong. If you've been nursing a secret passion for someone, the frustration will really get to you.
