they continue on the way to redistribute income and gain votes for control. the bill has all kinds of relief for poor and those 150% over poverty line. I expect dems see this as a way to continue to feed the large voter base and tax the upper middle and higher income base.

Only when democrat voters and independents feel a heavier tax burden will they vote them out.

I didn't see much resistance from corporations or lobbyists to fight cap and trade.. surprising i found ceo's supporting some type of cap and trade... out of fear? Are they scared of democrat machine? even several republican representatives voted for bill , we had enough to block the vote if only a few of them held.
