No I do not. They do not get into the details..they just talk in generalities. Now if they were really going to lay out every possible reveneue increase whether it be tax rates and/or loopholes..just a checklist with the associated cost next to it and compare it with a chekclist of exactly every type of cut we can do with its associated costs and then go down the line and start checking and crossing out and doing the math..then heck yeah I would like to see that. But we all know that wont happen.

But we know they wont show that. Cant get anyone on either side right now to give a hard number anywhere.

Putting Fiscal Cliff Talks on TV?

What a brilliant idea. Before taking office in 2009, President Obama promised to have the most transparent administration in history. Throughout his first term, we've seen anything but transparency but now would be a great time for redemption. President of Americans for Tax Reform Grover Norquist has called for fiscal cliff negotiations to take place in front of TV cameras where we can all see how our politicians plan to change our lives on January 1.
