Well, it could definitely come up before that. Typically raising any taxes is unpopular no matter who is doing it or for what reason. I might be wrong about what could trigger one of the parties to decide it's worth the hit, but it would be a different environment than we're in now.  
  
 Edit: they technically expire in 2025, but with enough support it could be revised before that.

### REPLY:
Given the path our federal budget is heading, I see them raising taxes or lowering benefits (hopefully from the big 3 that costs 2 trillion a year, SS, medicare and medicaid.
