>>>There is no doubt at all among economists that extending the tax cuts to the wealthy (income over 250K/year) will cost more and add more to the deficit than any other proposal on the table or any war already underway. It's a gigantic transfer of wealth from the struggling to the already wealthy. If you want to see some numbers on the transfer of wealth to the richest Americans over the past generation, I can dig them up.
