Just one case in point - the lack of certainly that is being created by the lack of clarity about whether or not the "Bush tax cuts" will be allowed to expire. Whether or not one agrees or disagrees with continuing the status quo, the president's advisers are begging him to let them expire. At the same time, the President and key Democrats are sending mixed signals about whether or not they will expire, or possibly be modified in some manner. This is creating a level of paralysis in the marketplace.

I often hear and read things like this. All my years have taught me that as with numbers a case can be put forward to rationalize any agenda.
In other words, more hooey.
Why not just assume the law will be followed and this gift to the rich will expire as is long overdue?
