It's the biggest tax increase in history

Yea, rah, Congress, the 2009 $3 trillion budget passed and fortunately for all of us, the Bush tax cuts were not extended. If they were, we wouldn't have the biggest tax hike ever.

Democrats are happy because taxes will rise $2.8 trillion by 2018. So even if President Obama cuts middle class taxes and helps old people like me, we will all be able to pay additional money to Uncle Sam.
