Battling Tax Agreement Charts

In: Politics

15 Dec 2010

A good article by Jonathan Chait comparing two charts on the costs of the proposed tax agreement: one from the White House, and one from Moveon.org.  (The difference between the two is whether the tax cuts for the rich are actually allowed to expire in 2012)

White house:

Moveon:

red or blue, it still cost the country 900 billion dollars. Wall street went up but so did oil, gas, and every commodity under the sun. It is a depression, debt has just filled in the gap.
