Ah.. Hind sight. In six years or so, if this stimulus plans turns out rosy, I will lay it aside. Until then, I'd like both sides of our senate to have a voice, make reasonable deals, and not rush to spend the largest spending bill in our history that may very well solve temporary pain but lay in longer-term for some time.
Its A LOT of money (one million dollars a day every day since Christ was born). Even when they sign the thing it will have 1-2 years for all of the money to be spent. They can take an extra week have a detailed look-over. Thats IS what they are supposed to do. Rushing to way, Rushing to financial ruin, this isn't voting some kind of honorary day or something. This is a big deal.
