First of all, "The Hill" is anything but a "right-winger's blog."

I have no idea how you arrive at your interpretation. Taxes are scheduled to raise automatically next January if the Congress does nothing at all. The motion to adjourn was a desperate attempt to keep the subject from coming to a vote now, and there could be only one reason the Democratic leadership would be afraid of a vote on this. And that is they were afraid enough Democrats would vote with the Republicans to extend the current low tax rates across the board.

The Netherlands has been lowering income tax rates for the past ten years or so, although they're still too high. They have one of the lowest tax rates for foreign companies. Anyway, I don't see a nation with a smaller population than Florida as a good comparison to the United State.
