Stand firm on the following Revenue ideals for Fiscal Cliff negotiations

Created by C.S. on November 29, 2012

1) Make the lower tax rate for those under 250k per year permanent.
2) Increase tax rate for those over 250k per year to Clinton era levels.
3) Create a higher tax bracket for those making over 1M per year.
4) Corporations are NOT people. Increase the top tax rate for corporations above the top rate for those making over 1M per year.
5) Insure that the poor continue to receive EIC and other programs designed to help the most needy among our population.
6) Close loop holes and tax havens designed only to help the wealthy.
7) Implement a Buffet Rule - whereby the wealthy pay a minimum tax.
8) Cut tax loopholes where companies such as banks or petroleum pay effectively zero taxes.
9) Retain the mortgage deduction for interest in your primary residence.
