Less profit available to business, less hiring and less wage increases. In the past seven years, the gov has attempted to restrict and regulate busines to the point where they are not playing along. No matter what Obama and the socialists say, you can't increase the middle class by making someone pay higher taxes. That money is not going to the middle class. The higher the taxes, the less employment your are going to have. The less wage hikes you are going to have. All you will accomplish is putting more people on a gov subsidy.
