Postponing what? The Fiscal Cliff was a GOP self-inflicted wound that they imposed on America when they managed to get our credit rating downgraded.
No;it was created by both democrats and republican in the debt ceiling deal.No one with any sense really thinks that taxing the rich can solve more than at most 2% of our deficit problem.More GDP needed to pay off debt in the end means lowerig the botto line. that is what business es did in thsi recessio and we see where it falls.
All song and dance to put forth an illusion that something is getting done for the good of the USA.
Sorry, same old song and dance........20-22 Trillion by the end of Mr Hussein's 2nd term.........25-30 Trillion in national debt by the end of Mr Hussein's 3rd term.

No one thinks that taxing the elderly can solve our deficit problems.
Plus, the Bush tax cuts were implemented out of fear of balancing our debt. It amazes me that rwnj rather propose SS cuts than increase taxes on the rich. Instead they ***** about the 47% not paying taxes.
So we save 60 billion a year and there are no spending cuts. LOL
I guess Obama can fund a few more green energy companies to go bankrupt anyway. Yippee.
I hear that good jobs and resolving our job polarization is a bad thing, right?
Greener industries grow faster than the overall economy. For every percentage-point increase in an industry’s green intensity (the share of employment in green jobs), annual employment growth was 0.034 percentage points higher. Projections for the next 10 years suggest continued jobs benefits from green intensity.
States with greater green intensity have generally fared better in the current economic downturn.
Green jobs are accessible to workers without a college degree. For every one percentage-point increase in green intensity in a given industry, there was a corresponding 0.28 percentage-point increase in the share of jobs in that industry held by workers without a four-year college degree.
Manufacturing plays a strong role in the green economy. Although it represents only 10.8 percent of total private employment, manufacturing accounts for 20.4 percent of green jobs.
Green jobs go beyond the renewable energy industry. For example, nearly 50 percent of jobs in the water industry are green jobs, and the sector has opportunity to grow not just overall but in green intensity.

Anybody who knows anything knows that "necessity is the mother of invention" not hand-outs for laziness.....how do you think electricity got discovered.. This is not how the human race prospers, discovers and appreciates progress...( not to mention the amount of belly up deals in the past and tax paying loss's. So its just not going to wash. And I think if you were on top of your game you would know, that it will prob be some back-yard guy with zest and a degree with no job that makes a breakthrough in this field. Everyone is onto energy.

Oh, and military cash cow contractors have nothing to do with this? Get real.
