Beginning with the steel tariff reeking of economic stupidity for votes (spend and elect) continuing with enhanced farm subsidies (spend and elect) continuing with Medicare spending $400 Billion sans a single dollar raised to cover the bill (spend and elect). The repubs now offer us the omnibus spending bill with pork gone out of any sense of control. Is this Bush administration and this republican congress so vested in the short term that they are willing to risk the long term economic survival of america? What price glory?
I don't understand the spending of this admin., well, I do but don't understand the mindset/policy change of this party. Certainly not showing much if any restraint and they haven't, that I know of, revealed a plan of how this budget is suppose to come out to the good down the road.
It's the ponzy [sp] principal. In the end the public will get stiffed. It was modeled after the system used by Enron
