Lots of things that was originally supposed to be temporary end up being perpetual. You can throw in the "temporary" extension of unemployment benefits or "temporary" cut in the payroll tax. In my view the difference is public opinion toward taxes change over time and rates change as a result. Keep in mind Clinton was able to create a brand new higher tax bracket for "the rich" less than 20 years ago. "Think of the children!" on the other hand seems to always maintain influence. Before you say it, I know Clinton "reformed" welfare as well, but really how is that working out?
