This is just an idea I had that I wanted to see if anyone had some opinions on it. I'm not entirely sure I think it's a particularly good compromise - just an interesting one.
So, what if there were a deal that the Bush tax cuts would be made permanent paired with a temporary tax increase to Clinton era levels or higher (depending on what people actually trained in economics would suggest) that would sunset after a given period of time or until the debt was at a certain level - which ever would come first.
That's actually it on my end. Any thoughts?
