It is interesting to witness the lack of support for this bill from the liberal piggingtons on this board. I guess they know it is that bad.

Today, the Wall Street Journal called this the largest tax increase in history that would impact everyone:

But I don’t understand, President Obama said only the wealthiest US citizens would pay additional taxes?

If people care to, you should call your congressmember. Also, you might want to contact these moderate Democrats who may vote for it unless there is enough public pressure. Here is a wiki page for the current moderate blue dog democrats:

Just go to their separate page and there is a link to their congressional website on the bottom, where you can call their office.
