736 page road map to a socialist state.

I guess I should be very happy I no longer have to pay the mortgage, my federal income taxes, or vote anymore, but somehow I'm not.

Perhaps a letter to Heloise?

Call my senators, ha ha!
In New Jersey my two senators are Lautenberg and Menendez, two of the most socialist creeps in the country. Somehow, I don’t think they’ll listen. With the exception of Scott Garrett, I have no representation in NJ.

Just from the first few pages; lots of additional welfare and no jobs.

1 Strike out all after the enacting clause and insert the

My suggestion:
1 Strike out all after the enacting clause and insert the
2 following:
3 SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
4 This Act may be cited as the "Congress out of Your Wallet Act of 2009’’.
5 TARP is recognized as unconstitutional and all TARP funding is cancelled.
6 All previous bailout provisions are also recognized as outside the Enumerated
7 Powers as well as outide the 9th and 10th Amendments to the Constitution
8 of the United States of America and are cancelled.

Wow - only 736 pages. This pales compared to our tax system. Then again, it’s completely full of pork as far as I can see from my quick glance.

I’ll have my driver read it.

Senator DeMint has a plan and here is what he says about the dems plan:

“The stimulus bill that is being championed by President Obama, which was passed by Democrats in the House last night, is the worst piece of economic legislation Congress has considered in a hundred years. Not since the passage in 1909 of the 16th Amendment — which cleared the way for a federal income tax — has the United States seriously entertained a policy so comprehensively hostile to economic freedom, nor so arrogantly indifferent to economic reality.”

DICK MORRIS:
“But Obama’s strategy is to hide inside the Trojan Horse of stimulus an army of radical measures to change America permanently.

The most pernicious of his proposals will be the massive Make Work Pay refundable tax credit. Dressed up as a tax cut, it will be a national welfare program, guaranteeing a majority of American households an annual check to “refund” taxes they never paid. And it will eliminate the need for about 20% of American households to pay income taxes, lifting the proportion that need not do so to a majority of the voting population. Unlike the Bush stimulus checks, this new program will be a permanent entitlement, a part of our budget that can only go up and never down. Politically, it will transform a majority of Americans from taxpayers, anxious to hold down government spending, into tax eaters, eager to reap new benefits.”
If you would like to see for yourself just exactly what Congress calls economic stimulus, then you should check out the web site READ THE STIMULUS. Be sure to open the SPREADSHEET you can find there.
