That millions and millions is hard to compare to $ 91 billion. It is a bargain.

Wow. That's impressive. You just twisted your own mind to actually state that promising $600 million to programs (that will not work, and will see HUGE amounts of loss due to corruption and bureaucracy) in just two days is actually a bargain deal for the American taxpayer. Congratulations.

Wow. That's impressive. You just twisted your own mind to actually state that promising $600 million to programs (that will not work, will see HUGE amounts of loss due to corruption and bureaucracy, and will never benefit a single American citizen) in just two days is actually a bargain deal for the American taxpayer. Congratulations.

Could be a bargain, if well spent, but these dollars never are. The giveaways for social spending has to stop somewhere, and by darn, when I eagerly voted for Bush, I foolishly thought it may at least slow. What a disappointment.

Ben, you see quite a few angry people on FR for the same reason. You need to know there are many voters out here who are questioning all this spending; ordinary people who read the local newspapers, watch the local and cable news, and they're getting the same message. These are working and retired people, who have one hell of a time making ends meet with current taxes, and they simply don't have any more to give. You surely can't believe we won't have tax increases.

If the people in Africa don't know by now what is causing AIDS, I have to guess they never will, perhaps don't care, and no amount of money will change that.
