Wrong, the reason they are expiring is that is the only way that Democrats would approve them back when Bush took office and Democrats controlled the Senate. Further why do you contiue to buy the rhetoric that people keeping more of their own money is an expense to the govt? That is ridiculous, there is no line item in the budget for tax cuts and as I have shown many times both the Reagan and Bush tax RATE cuts grew govt. revenue so explain to me how growing govt. revenue is an expense?
There is plenty to cut in the budget as all this Congress has to do is get out of those programs that are state responsibilities instead of the Federal Responsibility and then grow the economy to maximize revenue growth.
No, it was the Byrd rule and PAYGO that meant they couldn't go for more than 10 years if they weren't paid for. I would call that being fiscally responsible.
Economists don't agree that tax cuts grow revenue. Tax everyone at 1% and see what that does. :rofl
Plenty to cut in the Budget? Okay, show me the money. What are you going to cut to get us in the black?
