Raising the debt cap during the Great Recession? <br /><br />Or a surcharge that probably won't make it out of conference committee? <br /><br />Or the fact that in 30 years a tax that affects the top .5% wealthiest households in America might affect the top 1.5% wealthiest households in America. <br /><br />Are you arguing that the government should spend <i>less</i> during this recession? <br /><br />And you clearly haven't looked at the numbers that show healthcare costs taking up an increasing share of our national wealth over the next ten years? <br /><br />While back of the envelope math is all well good, I'm not really sure what you think you're proving.Joshnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7911788560018241640.post-79146906933964007592009-11-16T23:21:06.526-05:002009-11-16T23:21:06.526-05:00The tax bracket calculations seem a little differe...The tax bracket calculations seem a little different than the effect caused by the AMT.
