And not a dime for small businesses

No tax cuts for the middle class. I guess they had to give something up somewhere.

[Phantom Lord]

What? Obama extending "Bush's tax cuts"! The left should be in a rage. But they will instead play this as Obama's idea.

I predict the income rate reduction of the Bush years will remain in place when all is said and done as well.

[tongue-tied]

Wind turbines and solar panels? Sounds like more of the green initiative.

And you're right, nothing for small businesses.

$787 BILLION to bailout idiots who placed the economic structure and foundation of this country at severe jeopardy but a mere $38 billion to the engine of growth and jobs in this country?

Jack Squat, one word for ya: I-D-I-O-T-!

So, who’s butt is this waxing? Not mine. Small Business Owner.

Everything this jerk does is an obscene joke.

I’ll say it again, running any business is like being in a poker game. The game only works when the rules and odds are predictable. 0 has no idea that his style and agenda are upsetting the rules and odds. On top of this the hands being dealt aren’t so good. So, who is going to go all in on a 2 and 5 off suit?

The real problems aren’t being addressed:
Taxes, Health care costs, Energy costs, Credit

He’s just throwing darts at the dartboard as usual. No clue about cause and effect. One of these days he’s going to accidentally do something right.

It ended on December 31, because the great one and the rest of the Dims were against extending it.

Now - after Virginia, New Jersey and Massachusetts spoke - he's willing to put it back into affect.

Before he was again it, now he be for it.

Is he honest enough to admit that economic recovery will come from what the private sector is let go to do, without political coercion, and not from what is drained from the private sector into political programs??? Doubt it.

A tax breah for evil CEO’s,

That should send his whacko worshippers in to orbit...

$38 billion ?
Yawn.

[doodad]

How about giving the taxpayers a break?

Let me be clear: CUT THE F**KING MARGINAL RATE YOU MORON.

Have a nice day...

[Blood of Tyrants]

If a temporary tax cut is good, why isn’t a permanent tax cut.

[Tallguy]

...would save companies that make purchases of equipment such as tractors, wind turbines, solar panels and computers a total of $38 billion over this year and next by allowing a 50 percent write- off of the cost in the first year, the official said.

Yes, but T. Boone Pickens & the CEO of GE will probably gain another year to sell-off the divisions that make this cr@p & leave some other guy holding the bag when economic reality dawns on the "Green Economy."

Which means my step daughter's fledgling IT business is going to have to keep getting shots in the arm from her dad who pays her health ins.

The new Demonrat mantra! Woof, woof, let granny eat dog food...spoof on 'let them eat cake'. obama's war on seniors

See the links in post 43-46 and on the last page.

Expanding support for families balancing work with caring for elderly relatives with a $102.5 million Caregiver Initiative adding $52.5 million in funding to Department of Health and Human Services caregiver support programs that provide temporary respite care, counseling, training, and referrals to critical services. The administration says the extra funding will allow nearly 200,000 additional caregivers to be served and 3 million more hours of respite care to be provided. It also adds $50 million to programs that provide transportation help, adult day care, and in-home services, such as aides to help seniors bathe and cook, help which eases the burden for family members and helps seniors stay in their homes.
