This is not a "tax cut." At least not for those people who generate new jobs. What maintaining the current tax rates does is just prevent the Democrats from doing more damage than they've already done. The status quo is not a stimulus, it's just keeping things from getting worse.
Add to that even more billions in new spending, the return of the Marxist estate tax, and the "goodies" being pumped into the deal, and I'm starting to feel like Lando Calrissian - this deal is getting worse all the time.
It is true that the real problem is spending. I once posted the U.S. budget history, showing how much the Federal budget has grown outlandishly just in the last thirty years or so. Most of that HAS to be fat.

I don't agree with Alexander that this will create a lot of jobs.
