How do you know that "we" are not screwed anyway?

I don't see any way that I am screwed ... some people are screwed, but then some people are always screwed. The argument seems to be that the spending bill will result in a significant number of screwed people being saved from said screwing .. very hard thing to pin down, you have to determine the time period cause it could save some people from a screwing tomorrow but result in additional screwed people down the road ... then there is the question of who is being saved from being screwed, and who is not being saved, there are some people who I would like to see get screwed, we're not saving them, are we?

I don't see any way we can ever determine with any degree of certainty whether the spending bill is a good idea or not.

And apparently the cost is up to $900,000,000,000.
