Ya revenue, revenue revenue. For the first 2 months of this fiscal year the Govt
took in $60 Billion more than last year, but spent $62 Billion more
in the same 2 months. There's your revenue.
The Repubs already offered $800 Billion in closing tax deductions.That was Obama's first request, then he upped it to 1.6 Billion. That's compromise???
I would like to see the Rebubs re-offer the deductions and add a %5 cut
across the board, except military, period. Very reasonable. If they don't take it, let the Dems drive us off the cliff, then let them take the blame for the conseqences.
