Want to let the Bush Tax Cuts expire

Bloomberg has a list of the various lobbying groups that are opposing any efforts to get the deficit under control. They include National Association of Wholesaler- Distributors, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, managing the Tax Relief Coalition, the National Federation of Independent Business and the National Association of Manufacturers. They will be lobbying hard to keep their wealthy members and friends from paying their fair share of support for the government. If necessary they will probably have their members even lay off employees to make their specious point that letting profligate tax cuts expire will hurt jobs. Make some noise with your congressmoop if you can but it sure looks like we are all well fucked.
