David Selig, Federal Tax Practitioner & Pro-business advocate joins Thom Hartmann. It's the return of the hostage-taker Government. You can already see what's going to happen when it comes to extending the payroll tax cut. Republicans will threaten severe damage to the economy by voting down the payroll tax cut, unless the Democrats agree to more tax cuts for the top 1% - or the privatization of medicare and social security.

2. I think the payroll tax cuts should end.

The payroll tax cuts weaken Social Security. It's wrong to cut those taxes.
