Dem plan for millionaire surtax intended to soften GOP

The Hill
Senate Democrats are using their proposal to raise taxes on millionaires as a stalking-horse to force Republicans to accept other tax increases.
Phi Beta Iota: The Hill is letting us down when it fails to provide context. This “debate” over tax cuts is either criminal insanity or insanely criminal. As long as the federal government is BORROWING one trillion dollars a year “in our name,” any discussion that does not begin with “stop borrowing” is unconstitutional, illegitimate, and grounds for the impeachment of every member now serving in the Senate and the House, including Ron Paul if he does not bring this basic fact forward in public.
