Actually that was my first response to the compromise as well when i saw what was being removed from the bill. I said months ago that on stimulus i was a radical looking for out of the box solutions from both sides. So what did we get---from the dems too much pork and from the reps too much reliance on tax cuts in this demand side decession we are in. And then to get votes needed in the senate, two core things get removed (state aid and school construction) Both are stimulative as one prevents layoffs and the others is instant construction jobs spread around the nation.
What do i want now? House should put this back in but look to cut out pork and some of the least effective tax cuts. Then put it to a vote in congress and let republicans in the senate dare to filibuster there.
