There are many reasons to object to this stinking pile from adding up debt that will increase inflation, taxes and interest rates when its effects are really felt down the road to repeating another Great Society version 2.0. The stimulus was supposed to be targeted, timely and temporary, but Porkulus isn't. Much of it will lead to permanent increases in the Federeal budget, especially in healthcare.
Tom Dascle is gone, but his plan remains which is basically rationing with one size fits all.
There’s Socialized Medicine Burried in Obama’s Trillion Dollar Debt Plan
That vision involves using large government bureaucracy and computer technology to tell patients what kind of care they can receive from their doctors. The congressional rationing plan will make doctors supplicants to big government and big insurance, rather than independent advocates for their patients. In the system that Congress envisions, the doctor serves the payer and not the patient.

There's no need for these health care initiatives in a temporary stimulus bill. Call or email your Senators and Representative tonight or in the morning.
Here's Senator Kirsten E. Gillibrand's number, DC Phone: 202-224-4451.
Here's the most repulsive Senator Charles E. Schumer's number, (202) 224-6542. The latter is probably hopeless, but annoying him might be enjoyable.

That's it, you know.
Why? Why are they doing this?
Could this be the new world order being delivered?
And If not, then what the H3&& is going on?

Horse.
It’s about the Democrats showing us that they are in charge, losing power makes them crazier.
So it’s all about temper tantrums and “I’ll show you/get you back/make you pay” games.
It’s all about getting power, and keeping it once they have it.
When AlbaGore lost, they looked at the map and freaked out about how badly AlbaGore lost.
When Kerry lost, they freaked out even more.
So the people who resoundly rejected them in three separate elections are now going to be punished for it.
That’s what it is all about.
But you could lose your Republic.
The Republic is gone, IMO. Kiss it goodbye and hunker down in the bunker with a good book and some MREs. Better yet, with THE Good Book and some MREs.
I know.
It probabl;y is already lost due to people being too stupid to hold onto it.
I have a coworker who thinks higher taxes will “show THEM”, not even comprehending that higher taxes hurt her instead.
There’s this mental disconnect, delusion, that doesn’t connect the obvious intended evil of Dem actions with things in their own lives.
When Stephen Harper lowered the Goods and Services Tax from 7% to 6%, I mentioned to a customer that “at least you’ll be paying less tax”.
He replied that he didn’t think the tax rate should have been dropped because there wouldn’t be enough money for social programs.
I informed him that revenues rise with every tax cut, but if it would make him feel better, I’d charge him the old amount.
He refused to pay the higher rate.
At that point, had he not been a customer, I would have told him what a hypocrite I though he was, but I bit my tongue.
