"All this effort for a bill that would put $760 billion in new debt on the backs of Americans in the name of making a handful of extremely rich people even richer. Congressional leaders may know how to count votes, but otherwise their math is pathetic."

Some people (including me) think money earned is better left in private hands. And there are folks like you who think it better the gov't has it. I think there is a lot of corruption and waste in gov't, and don't look for them to solve my problems. If the math above is correct, I would say that an extra $760,000,000,000 in the private sector would do more good than the gov't having an extra $760,000,000,000. You have seen plain as day that Bush's tax cuts INCREASE gov't revenue, yet you still attack. I think that you are really more interested in penalizing those you don't like than your make believe position that the debt will ruin America. It is very low by percentage compared to other nations, but that is ignored by the pro governement folks like you.

But then gov't is god to many on the left. Anything they can do to take money from people they don't like they will do. Now that is pathetic.
