The GOP didn't win on tax cuts

Absolutely. Expand Medicare to cover all American Citizens. Canada provides a good example of how to do it. So, let's do it.
Really? Guess there's problems in the Canadian paradise of healthcare...eh?

CANADA REVISES IT'S HEALTHCARE SYSTEM

Canada has made changes to its universal health care system to try to cut back on soaring costs.

Reuters has reported some changes include a possible new health care tax. And one unpopular idea has Canadians making payments for medical visits that were once free.

Most Canadians do not want any changes to their free health care. Some analysts predict health care will make up 70 percent of the Canadian government's budget in 12 years.

"Our objective is to preserve the quality healthcare system we have and indeed to enhance it. But there are difficult decisions ahead and we will continue to make them," Ontario Finance Minister Dwight Duncan told Reuters.

Rut-roh...:eusa_hand:


It already makes up 55% of the budget in Ontario (up from 40% a decade ago) and around 40% in BC.

Canada will be fucked up the asshole if there aren't drastic changes in the next decade or so.

And yet we are on the same path...greatest thing we are told...
 
obama is going to come out on top for this....

the gop screwed up by not agreeing to tax cuts for those over a million

you watch...obama's compromise will win him over with americans....now he can let the pubs hang themselves, calling themselves victors for "winning" this and "causing" obama to capitulate....just for keeping taxes lower for those making over $1 million dollars....i know the 250 was floated...but then it went up to a million....

in one year or less, pubs will regret this

The Republicans got Obama to fold inspite of being the minority party. Obama held the key cards and still gave in to everything the Republicans wanted

Republican temper tantrum worked

not at all....

obama knows that allowing most of the tax cuts to expire were bad...most economists have said this....this way...he is seen as the great compromiser and can now hold the gop up as the solely the party of the rich....which he has done all day....

this might backfire for obama (but still hold well for most americans) is that the gop agreed to UB for another year, thus, you can't really say the gop is solely about the wealthy....however, them not agreeing to the expiration for those making over a million does not look good

and why is obama not saying the dems are holding UB and the american people hostage when the dems won't agree to his compromise....but he is quick to say the gop are essentially terrorists?

What economists think that tax cut sunset is bad?
