make it 3! Since when did she or Obama care about law anyway? One need only consult the 10th amendment to confirm the bill is unconstitutional.

Since there is no way they cut anything to pay for this, this is effectively a tax on the rest of us. That's about $10 for every person in the state. Thanks MEGA!!!!

So they are going to use taxpayer money to fund a controversial campaign to get more money from taxpayers....

It baffles me that these people can take millions of dollars, dump it into a pet project, and claim that they have created/saved a certain number of jobs. That money had to come from somewhere, and if it "created/saved" a job in one place, then logically it must have destroyed/lost a job someplace else. Just because those lost jobs are spread over the rest of the economy doesn't mean they aren't there, they are just less visible. Government cannot create jobs, because government does not produce anything.

Reminds me of how Reagan described government involvement in the economy: "If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it."

So because he is against Obama's policies and he is from the south, he must be racist. I thought liberals were supposed to be against stereotypes.....

Here is a novel idea..... How about people get to do whatever they want, so long as it doesn't harm others?
Running other peoples' lives, telling them what to do always a horrible idea. First, it always has the opposite effect that you intend. Second, each individual knows what is best for one and only one person, and that person is himself/herself.

Secondly, Black is just as guilty of trying to enforce his views on others, even though he doesn't realize it and will fiercely deny it. In his blog he compares our area to the 1970's, and seems to think that just because our area has a different overall viewpoint, that we must just have "never openly discussed gay rights before". He is unable to see the possibility that many people (even in those big, important cities (note sarcasm)) think his views are overrepresented in today's culture.

"In still more bad news, the report starkly warned that a new long-term care insurance plan included in the legislation could "face a significant risk of failure" because it would attract people in poor health, leading to higher and higher premiums, and eventually triggering an "insurance death spiral.""

Duh, we saw this a couple years ago when it was called Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

JoeysDad, I completely agree. There is clearly no constitutionality for this. And I'm sure that the government will treat all companies equally, no matter the political leanings of the employees....
I guess the only question I have now is:

Does the government break up these huge companies before or after we bail them out?
