This was covered in another thread.
And this premise is as asinine as the other thread.
The vote was to raise taxes on those of us who make more then $250k, not to cut taxes. Nobody is getting a tax cut here.

It extends the tax cuts on income up to $250k
By your 'reasoning', the Republicans voted today to raise taxes on everyone
You were talking about asinine premises?
Let me see if I understand your reasoning here. The Bush Administration passed a temporary tax cut for those making above $250K.
But, the premise is that when that temporary tax cut runs it's course, if "nothing" is done the Congress is deemed to have "raised" taxes. So, if a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it ... it didn't make a sound?
Tax Cuts for the wealthy are done. The economy is in the toilet and the government's just about bankrupt. It's time for those making $250K and up to get back to paying their fair share.

The benefit was given to help spur the economy. It didn't work and time has run out. How does it make any sense to extend this benefit? The money that "the rich" have saved by this tax cut benefit was supposed to be put back into the economy yet one look at corporate America's bottom line and it's obvious to the casual observer that "Corporate America" and "the rich" have been hanging onto their money. Any premise for continuing the tax benefit for the rich has long since passed and the idea itself to spur the economy has failed.

No...dumbass....this was a vote to raise taxes....not to cut taxes.
It allows the tax-cuts to expire on the rich which means a massive tax increase.

Nope just letting a temporary tax reduction expire.
The tax breaks should expire. There was a time for them, this is not the time. Now they need to cut spending as well.

The benefit is to pay for Obama's support groups...not Americans.
And this is about raising taxes...not cutting them. Nobody is gaining anything here. All it's doing is keeping the status-quo during a period that everyone can agree is too fragile to be able to absorb any increases.

Sonny Bono's kid?
Actually not voting to extend the tax cuts is not voting for a tax increase.
It is just letting the origional bill expire like it was designed to.
