"Fix the Debt" CEOs/companies will benefit from "Grand Bargain" to the tune of $134 BILLION

Wow, I'm shocked that greedy and shortsighted CEOs of our nation's most successful companies stand to gain from the phony fiscal cliff debt fixes:

Maybe you've heard of it-the CEO campaign to "Fix the Debt." With a $60 million war chest and the blessing of more than 80 CEOs of America's biggest corporations, "Fix the Debt" is passing itself off as a reasoned call for compromise to save the nation from economic disaster.

But as this new infographic (below) and a recent study show, the companies behind Fix the Debt stand to gain $134 billion from one of the tax breaks they are promoting. Not just any tax break, mind you, but a new tax incentive for corporations to send U.S. jobs overseas.

The people don't believe there's a "fiscal cliff" and don't want a "Grand Bargain" to fix what don't need fixin'. (As gramps would say.)

Pass it on........Balance the bugdet on the backs of the Billionaires.
