我仔細讀了那個LINK裏麵的內容而不光是標題,就沒有得出這個結論.

For most taxpayers, the bulk of the increase would be triggered by the expiration of tax cuts enacted in 2001 and 2003 during the George W. Bush administration. The expiration of President Obama’s payroll tax holiday, which shaved two percentage points off the 6.2 percent Social Security tax, comes in a close second.
 
But the lowest earners would be hit hardest by the expiration of tax breaks enacted as part of Obama’s 2009 economic stimulus package, the study found. The stimulus includes a temporary expansion of the earned income tax credit and the child tax credit for working families. And it temporarily bumps up a two-year, $1,800 tax credit for college tuition to four years and $2,500.
 
如果到年底什麽都不做,那麽這些瞎呼人的增稅才有可能.一是布什減稅政策的失效,二是08自己減稅政策的失效.而事實上兩黨都在討論延長25萬以下家庭的減稅,分歧在對25萬以上的增稅.即使共和黨不同意這方麵增稅,他們也在考慮別的地方增稅,譬如對所有收入征收SS TAX.
