“The House Democrats’ health care plan includes a surtax on wealthy Americans. The graduated tax would apply to families making more than $350,000 a year, with the rate increasing as income levels go up. But a number of freshmen Democrats argued that the initial income level should be raised so the tax doesn’t unfairly burden small businesses.”
Since when did “families making more than $350,000 a year” become “small businesses” that we do not want to burden?
Even the Blue Dogs have stopped trying to make sense. Compromised legislation folks. It is what Obama asked for.
