Watching Boehner news conference now

[beretta304]

Or else we could reduce the debt

Which shows how you're not paying attention to the real world. "Boehner said the White House is demanding too little in spending savings and too much in fresh spending on programs designed to stimulate the economy."

Obama wants to spend not reduce anything...

Boehner: White House Seems Willing to 'slow-walk' over 'fiscal Cliff'

Nonsense

Obama has targeted $2 trillion in savings through tax increases and spending cuts

Name the cuts specifically.

Yep.

In fact, the BEST CASE scenario estimates raising taxes on the rich would increase revenue enough to cover eight days of government spending. Eight days!

I argue the more likely scenario will be LESS revenue. As we've seen in the last month, that's exactly what happen in the UK, France, and the state of California after raising taxes on the wealthy.

So, I have to ask our resident Obamabots, what's the point of raising taxes on the wealthy? What do you hope to accomplish?

I put this up in another thread. The wealthy of France are bailing in droves. Here's the post.

Meanwhile in France where they have decided to tax the wealthy 75%, the French President and Prime Minister are whining their asses off as the rich are bailing in droves.

Now wealthy French citizens have responded predictably by moving out of France and last week famed French actor Gerard Depardieu joined the exodus.

The steady stream of departures has left the Hollande government incensed and this week Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault blasted the rich.

The English have also seen the same decline in wealthy taxpayers after it imposed a 50% tax. They are now going to reduce that tax after the departure of many wealthy Brits and David Cameron controversially pledged to “roll out the red carpet” for any French residents fleeing the massive tax hike.

In the meantime, anger at the wealthy continues to rise in France, where “eat the rich” signs are appearing.

The problems is that you cannot eat the rich if the rich flee before the meal.



Liberal fools. It looks good on Hollande. What an idiot.

If our wealthy want to bail over a 4% tax increase...I welcome them to do so

That Atlas Shrugged crap is bull shit

Really?

Millionaires' exodus: Two thirds of Britain's top earners 'deserted the UK' after 50p top tax rate was introduced

The number of people declaring incomes of more than £1m slumped from 16,000 to 6,000 after Gordon Brown introduced the new tax rules in 2010

The amount of tax paid by top earners fell from £13.4billion to £6.5billion as a result

Go ahead. Watch what happens.

 

[Claudette]

getting exactly what he wants is tax cuts on the wealthy to rise jsut like 60% of the American people want.

You want to crash the car because the American people dont agree with you and didnt vote for your party

You're a fucking moron.

Of course 60% want taxes raised. Just not theirs.

These folks don't care that the "evil rich" pay 60-70% of the Fed taxes right now. They feel those folks should pay it all. They completely ignore the fact that 49% pay no Fed taxes at all. That would be you asshole.

Personally I think they should give that fuck in the WH everything he wants. Raise taxes on the rich because when it does nothing for the economy he will then go after the middle class. Back all that green bs he keeps losing tax dollars on. Let those American idiots who voted him back in see exactly what they put back in office.

Lets see what the country looks like once that fuck in the WH gets everything he's asking for. Don't think any of the taxpayers will be pleased at all.

He is digging in his heels. No tax increases. Spending must be cut. Cliff looks imminent. ...

I'll believe it when it happens.

Obama has set a distribution between tax increases and spending cuts. Boehner is Speaker of the House....it is up to him to develop a bipartisan solution that the President will agree with.....time is running out

Obama has made it clear that he is not going to tip his hand on spending cuts. The ball is in Boehners court........he will have to spell out his bipartisan plan and face the consequences

Great isn't it?

Seems too rounded a number and thus likely arbitrary. Hard to get excited about policies that are a mystery, as Romney might have just learned.

The salient point is then: what's being cut and what's being taxed?

That's all I'm trying to find out. He said Obama targeted savings through cuts. Just wanna hear what they are. He can't seem to say...

Seems we should know, or call bullshit on Obama, which I do from time to time at The White House (Contact).

Where'd he make the claim and not include some kind of specifics?

What part of ask Boehner don't you understand?

Obama has set $1.6 trillion (now $1.4 trillion) in tax cuts and $800 billion in spending cuts as the distribution (target)

Boehner is Speaker......his responsibility to fill in the blanks so he can get bipartisan approval

What is taking him so long?

We're waiting

Back around post #60. All we asked him was to tell us what cuts. He's seems to be the only one in America who knows what Obama wants to cut.
