So what happens after they get these tax cuts & nothing changes?

[The_Casual_Observer]

Employment stays above 9%, corporations keep hoarding cash & so on. What then?

1. They will want more tax cuts.

The rich are never satisfied...More tax cuts for the rich and more budget cuts for everyone else except the military...

[Poll_Blind]

5. +1

Yup. That was my initial reaction even before I was done reading the OP: They'll want more.

2. They will screech about the deficit

and what a drain all of the lazy, non working poor folks are on the economy and other Plutocratic fun stuff.

3. They don't tax us for breathing air, yet.

They will find something else to cut. And of course more tax breaks for the rich will work.

4. SS, Medicare, Unemployment Ins, welfare, homeless shelters... "Have some government cheese!"

"Nope, never mind. No commie cheese for YOU!"

6. Then we try Take a Millionaire to Lunch Day

They're like Punxsutawney Phil. You have to be oh-so-careful with them or it'll be forever winter in America.

Keep trying. Chin up, good times ahead.

7. They'll want our SS, Medicare, education dollars, last dimes in our pockets n/t

8. That's the beauty of it.

It's still Obama's depression recession.

The Reptilian Republicans have worked themselves into a no-lose position.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. They don't give a shit. That's what happens.

[NorthCarolina]

12. +1

[Catshrink]

18. They'll blame it on Obama's ineffectiveness.

And they'll be right - but not in the way they mean it. No spine + no determination = one term.

10. I'm hoping...

that it will be rioting in the streets

[spanone]

11. we already HAVE these tax cuts and it is what it is....

[Proud Liberal Dem]

13. If you give the wealthy a tax cut.....................

n/t

[subterranean]

14. The teabaggers will still complain about the "crushing tax burden."

[doc03]

15. If they don't get their tax cuts and nothing changes or it gets

worse the Democrats will get the blame for raising taxes. If they don't get their tax cuts and the economy does good they will say it would have been better if it wasn't for the tax increase. It looks like a win win for the Republicans.

[Freetradesucks]

16. You do realize that it is not a tax cut..

....just taxes not being raised.

[butterfly77]

17. Kick...

[applegrove]

19. They will take the money and buy stock in foreign companies. They will

sell stuff to the new and growing middle class around the world. They will become the uber-rich. Then they will insist tax rates are lowered even more in the USA because if not they'll leave and take their money with them.
