Question for the right: Do you support exchanging the Bush tax cut for 350K people who earn >= $1M (avg 3M) for the extension of the middle-class centric payroll tax cut? More inside:

The GOP is going the opposite way claiming that these wealthy people need that extra money to create jobs.
That raises a follow up question:

  1. Considering that at this point the rich (people and companies) flush with more money than ever and their not creating jobs, why do you believe that a small change to their tax rates would make a difference about jobs?

  2. In fact, their alternate proposal is, in a recession, to pay for the top bracket extension by firing 200K fed workers (which would surely hurt the economy)

  3. Considering that NONE of the GOP tax cuts were ever paid for (i.e scored as revenue neutral...which they haven't been) why does the GOP insist that the payroll tax cut must be?
