"Stimulus" Bill

[unixronin]

1,419 pages of bill, in the final version.

About 4,000 pages of enabling regulations.

$800 billion.

13 hours between release of the final version of the bill, and the vote on it.

Do the math.

Hands up, anyone who believes that anyone in Congress not involved in drafting the bill got time to read it before they voted on it.

They have Staff for that . . .

Am amused by the assertion, in today's fishwrapper, that a bunch of school infrastructure stuff got dropped from the final version because Democratic Leadership didn't want to hand control of funds over to state governors.
