Bye Bye Banks and Wall Street

[innerSpaceman]

Yep, the smelliest bill full of pork barrel earmarks that has EVER come down the pike. Bullsh!t that is nothing but pure BRIBERY to get the votes of individual House members. Tax breaks for bicycle paths. Tax breaks for Road Racing Facilities. Tax breaks for businesses owned by Samoan Americans. OM Fvcking G, it's insane.

By the way, and speaking of insanity, the mental health provision - though also designed to appease one specific House member - is the one that makes the most sense. It is NOT a mandate for insurance companies to cover mental health, but rather a mandate for those that already DO cover it to cover it equitably to their other medical coverage.


Too bad Obama also voted for this bill ... otherwise he could shove the earmarks and pork straight up McCain's patootie at the next debate.


This Bill Reeks.




$150 billion dollars of extra tax breaks heaped on top of the $700 billion dollars already misdesigned in the same mold as the problem it portends to address ... i.e., pure trickle-down voodoo.
