the amendment was not presented yesterday.

Thanks for the great stuff, C. I have been watching this budget waltz and it is making me sicker than eating scallops, to which I am allergic. There is such a disconnect to all of this. Conrad gets up and complains about spending, and then the rest rush to the floor to spend some more.

Lautenburg up complaining about airline security tax, from $2.50 per flight to $5.00 per flight.

I think it is most fair for the user of a service to pay for it. If security is part of the cost of services (or cost of goods), it is entirely appropriate that the cost be borne by the user. That's the only way to create accurate market pressure.
