Yes, the majority of the American people - so say the polls - agree that taxes should be raised on those making over $250,000. The Republicans need to get their act together and eradicate the Tea Party hostage takers. BTW, Reagan raised taxes 8 times. And, who made Grover Norquist the King anyway? I'm a Republican and Reagan would be ashamed of what has happened to his party!
I own a small business and I'm ready to pay back this country for my success in the form of taxes - in addition to all the volunteer work I do. We need to get this country moving again - so Republicans need to stop complaining and start compromising.
