I am going to have to go through that bill more in-depth.

What happens when the gov't is receiving significantly less tax money while spending more?

According to this article, the gov't will lose $96B because of this bill. And with all of the people who are laid off and all of the people who are not paying taxes on their stock options windfalls, I have to believe that the tax revenues have been reduced significantly.

On the surface, this would seem to be something that would induce some spending, but what are the other ramifications? That's what I will be looking for.
