Congress needs to reconsider burdening taxpayers with more taxes. Whether they are called a tax or a fine, they are taxes. Congress wants us to further tighten our belts so that they can loosen theirs. Our belts are about as tight as they will go.
Speaker Pelosi is beginning to sound like Yogi Berra. When asked about the expiring tax cuts, she replied, “That wasn’t a tax increase. It is...eliminating a tax decrease”. For all practical purposes how does one differ from the other? Taxpayers will still pay higher taxes. This is Washington double speak.
Our backs are to the wall. Taxes need to be lowered. The taxes on small and large businesses need to be lowered. This would create more jobs. Jobs are what we desperately need.
Congress needs to extend the tax cuts and not burden taxpayers with new taxes as is proposed in new legislation such as the health care and energy bills.
Signed,
The Electorate
