Just the fact that this legislation is so long and complex, like everything in DC to make it near impossible for someone to find the graft and money laundering, should tell you it is bad for the country. Seriously, an excise tax on Tanning Services? This does not make your eyes roll?

and the important parts, that SHOULD make your head spin can be distilled down to this one statement, and it unveils the true nature of this man, who should get no more free passes than any politician who ever graced the hallowed halls in DC, the place of liars, cheats, sociopaths, and psychopaths:

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, 'the buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."

~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006

No...you said there wouldn't be any tax, just like you said federal flood insurance wasn't subsidized. Now you equivocate, and say the tax is minuscule. If you want to pick and choose, why not point out the section that indicates taxes and fees paid by insurance company's and businesses will be passed on to consumers?

Because it doesn't support your argument? That's OK, I understand.
