我仔细读了那个LINK里面的内容而不光是标题,就没有得出这个结论.

For most taxpayers, the bulk of the increase would be triggered by the expiration of tax cuts enacted in 2001 and 2003 during the George W. Bush administration. The expiration of President Obama’s payroll tax holiday, which shaved two percentage points off the 6.2 percent Social Security tax, comes in a close second.
 
But the lowest earners would be hit hardest by the expiration of tax breaks enacted as part of Obama’s 2009 economic stimulus package, the study found. The stimulus includes a temporary expansion of the earned income tax credit and the child tax credit for working families. And it temporarily bumps up a two-year, $1,800 tax credit for college tuition to four years and $2,500.
 
如果到年底什么都不做,那么这些瞎呼人的增税才有可能.一是布什减税政策的失效,二是08自己减税政策的失效.而事实上两党都在讨论延长25万以下家庭的减税,分歧在对25万以上的增税.即使共和党不同意这方面增税,他们也在考虑别的地方增税,譬如对所有收入征收SS TAX.
