We all know it would have been better spent on tax cuts for the rich.

Indeed, and subsidies for first class airline seats, eliminating the luxury tax, lose the AMT, and bailouts for those banks in the Caymans.

since when are tax cuts bad and anti American? directly taxing the population to raise revenue has Patriotic American consequences the idiot Joe Biden would never understand.

62% Want Stimulus Plan to Have More Tax Cuts, Less Spending

dont these people know some of you voted for "change"

heheheh

With the Senate poised to vote Tuesday on an $827-billion version of the economic recovery plan, 62% of U.S. voters want the plan to include more tax cuts and less government spending.

Just 14% would like to move in the opposite direction with more government spending and fewer tax cuts, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. Twenty percent (20%) would be happy to pass it pretty much as is, and five percent (5%) are not sure.
