You have your radicals, and conservatives…
Radicals who want to cut taxes,and take drastic measures, bold untried steps, to strip government of its power, it’s authority,….
And then you have conservatives, who just want things to go back to the way they were before the Bush Tax cuts, … when everything worked. when everyone did better than the year before, when we all actually believed that if we just worked hard, applied ourself, we could retire with something saved up and enjoy our golden years…
In this regard, Republicans like McConnell, Boehmer, Cantor, and Ryan are radicals…. Democrats including Obama, Biden, Coons, are conservative….. We just want to go back where we were ten years ago… Is that so bad?

Alas we cannot go back. Those who harken back to yesteryear are more often reactionary than not.
The world changes whether we want it to or not.

Someone older and wiser than me, once said, “the more things change, the more they stay the same.”
But in this case, all you have to do is let the Bush Tax cuts expire.
Not hard to do, It passed the House last November and came within one vote of passing in the Senate…
it’s just common sense. and we need to do it….
