Four in 10 Americans in a national poll say ending the Bush-era tax cuts on
annual earnings of $250,000 or more would help the economy, supporting the

such a move would harm the economy and 24 percent said there would be no
effect. http://www.businessweek.com/news/2012-07-16/poll-finds-americans-see-ending-tax-cuts-for-wealthy-beneficial
