What sickens me is that the politicians can't help themselves...they keep trying to insert totally unrelated pet projects into even this important issue. Aside from the fact that I think the Fortune 400 should pony up the cash to fix their own problems, I don't think adding some of the stupid "extras" makes sense.
The Senate bill also would:
* Make permanent authority for undercover operations.
* Make permanent authority for disclosure of information relating to terrorist activities.
* Exempt from excise tax certain wooden arrow shafts for use by children.
* Extend cost recovery period for motor racing tracks.
* Extend restaurant improvement credits.
* Extend and increase by 3 cents a barrel the oil spill liability tax.
* Allow fringe benefit reimbursement for qualified bicycle commuters.
* Give steelmakers tax credits for purchase of renewable fuels.
* Extend the tax credit for mine-rescue team training.
* Extend tax credit for investment in the District of Colombia.
* Clarify income averaging for settlement amounts received in connection with Exxon Valdez litigation.
* Creating parity for the insurance treatment of mental health problems
AND MORE !
Still nothing to protect the taxpayers or those about to lose their homes.
How stupid are they? Hopefully we will soon be rid of many of them...they do not deserve those positions of power because they just can't stop themselves from gifting the rich and sending the bill to the taxpayers.
