taxes on "the rich" go up, which is everybody.  People earning $20k - $40k will owe $1200 a year more, which means $100 a month additional withholding.
unemployment is cut off at 26 weeks.
death taxes back to 55% for estates totaling $1 million. That's most ranches.

hey that's their right!! just ask Obama

That's why the Estate tax exists. That's why the Federal Reserve exists. That's why our tax code is structured as it is.

They keep the working working as long as possible, as much as possible, and tax that work (and subsequent purchases with earnings) as much as possible. They tax the estates of the working (not the wealthy) so very high to keep them poor and working.

You're slaves. We're slaves. And everyone who votes Republican or Democrat is a willful one at that. The system is designed to keep you working--and working largely for government. The system is also designed to collapse, which will be used to justify expansion of government power farther beyond the Constitution than is already gotten away with. It will also be used as an excuse to explain why people have the lower standard of living which will inevitably follow their decreased freedoms.

They intend to crash our markets and economy by completely messing up our once freer markets, then blame the crash on free markets. They already did this with the "financial" crisis and the rhetoric continues to this day. You can watch exactly what I'm talking about because it's happening right now and will continue to. We know that the federal government was the source of the systematic failures which resulted in the crisis, but they all blame freedom and greed. And enough people are ignorant that it works and they gain more power through their crashing markets, harming the middle class, and dishonest rhetoric.

The "Fiscal Cliff" is just a bonus to our overlords. Large tax increases and spending "cuts" (largely military, which they don't care about) which have already been more than made up for (and will continue to be) with recent increases in spending. It's more of what they've been working at for decades sooner.

None of this should surprise anyone.

None of this stuff is a secret. We know that Hilary Clinton studied radicals who openly spoke about and published literature on revolution, collapsing economies/governments, and expanding government control without limits (aka squashing rights/freedom)--even, specifically, how to subvert written law (constitutions+other) in order to achieve this end despite the detriment of existing law prohibiting it.

And Barack Obama won't let us see his academic records. I'll wager he studied all of the same revolutionaries and more, and that's why we're not allowed to know.

None of this is a secret, it's just complicated enough that the average American doesn't care enough to learn anything about it.

Our media is complicit in pretending there's nothing to see behind the curtain. This includes Fox News. Anyone pretending Fox News is diametrically opposed to Democrats/Socialists and more dishonest than the other news outlets is just an ignorant socialist/communist not satisfied with the rate of socialization of Amerika and not aware that Fox News is in on the game, just like Republicans. They both exist to seem like the lesser evil to people who don't want socialism. Our political elite have known Amerikans will settle for the lesser evil for decades, and evil's just what we've gotten.

Already unmanageable debt and interest draining our standard of living, sure to hurt our children even more? Already got that. Spending exploding even MORE, despite our debt? Still doing that too.

This is not sustainable. It's already going to hurt, and every month/year we delay dealing with it will just make the pain worse. As I said, none of this is a secret. But our leaders want the pain and they want it to be bad. They want more power now for its own sake and to facilitate the crash, and they're going to use the crash (which they're causing) as a justification to grab even more power.

If the American people remain so ignorant of these not-secret facts, it will work too.

Going off Fiscal Cliff ruins US recovery without stopgap measures...and the day after New Years World markets tumble because we played politics with people's livelihoods #angryuscitizen

I think Kemp is actually Alex Jones.

Or maybe David Icke.

Nothing done has been intended to fix the economy.

"Stimulus"? You believed them when they said "We're experts and we know what will help the economy! CENTRAL PLANNING!"?

Lol

Justinian I,

Do you have examples of central planning motivating economic growth? More economic growth than capitalist competitors? For someone who claims to be an empiricist, you're quick to give faith to big government ideology which has nothing but a 100% failure rate around the world for the past half century plus.

There's massive amounts of data that central planning is never "enough" to compete with natural capitalist recoveries and growth. There's nothing but your overlords' word saying that the "stimulus" would have worked if it was bigger... Yet you side with your overlords against 100% of empirical data. Fascinating.
