Isn't it funny that John Kerry has more money than Romney but the media ignores that fact

Neither the Demoplicans nor the Repucrats area at fault for this mess.

Want to blame someone? How about the folks that decided not to vote?

Never raise the debt ceiling. Force across the board cuts. aspenstreet1717

You don't appear to understand what the debt ceiling actually is.

You probably should learn that before trying to discuss it any further, because you're making absolutely no sense so far.

we ought to all be able to claim CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE when the tax man comes looking us for tax evasion. sunshineonmyshoulder

Have fun in jail!

Remember- Al Capone murdered tons of people- The government did nothing to him.

Al Capone avoided paying taxes. He spent the rest of his life in prison.

Paychecks will be less in January than December.-aspenstreet1717

We should have had across the board cuts-aspenstreet171

So your plan to fix our massive deficit problem is to collect LESS money?

What a terrible plan.

Actually, I'm thinking the same way UNBLANKENBELIEVABLE is. I'm changing my withholding allowances this year to have the least amount possible to taken from my payroll check. If I could claim EXEMPT status, I would. This current crop of politicians in Washington are the worst I've seen in...well...forever. They obviously have no clue how precious that taxmoney is to my family. I've had enough! I'll be choosing how to spend as much of my money as possible this year. And...we ought to all be able to claim CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE when the tax man comes looking us for tax evasion.

People that actually work are not interested in tax rates when ever. Smaller paychecks equals less spending. We should have had across the board cuts. Instead we had more dollars from the efficient to the inefficient.

Obama is the problem. If he was not president this would have have happened so it is ALL HIS FAULT.
