And CEOs are in favor of a TAX overhaul which is Romneys plan..
They said 'tax increases' and 'raising taxes'. Those are the words they used.
So, tax hikes is now Romney's new plan? I am glad he has finally released his plan, because people have been wondering what he would do if he won. Well, I have been saying all along he is liberal.
Gun-bans, socialized medicine, gay unions, big spending, pro-abortion and now tax-hikes.

How is he not a liberal & socialist?
I am glad I am voting for Ron Paul.
They said they would support tax increases but only if it came with with a high degree of government spending cuts.
Quote:
The executives called the Simpson-Bowles commission approach—about $3 in spending cuts for every $1 of tax increases—an "effective framework" for addressing what they termed "a serious threat to the economic well-being and security of the U.S."
so who is promising to cut government spending? And who criticized whom for ignoring the simpson-Bowles approach?
Who says big business is bad? Why do you think the big business is taking the Dems side on this issue?
The exact thing I was thinking, I'm a democrat and I've never said big business is bad. But any business (more specifically Banks) that are too big to fail without causing a global meltdown are far too large and need to be broken down. As a matter of fact I'd take a shot and say democrats support large business even more than they're republican counterparts for we are typically more of the consumer when compared to republicans.
Chief executives of more than 80 big-name US are banding together to pressure Congress to reduce the federal deficit with tax-revenue increases as well as spending cuts.
CEOs understand that spending cuts alone will either not fix the deficit or be too drastic that it would send us into another recession.

"Demorats hate business" is just another lame GOP bumper sticker slogan, and totally untrue.
There have been several proposals which promote the "balanced" approach, but unfortunatelly everything is rejcted by politican opponents these days.
