Looks like nobody knows how to spend like the good ole gubbamint, eh? How do you manage to lose $1 billion dollars in the span of 4 days? Easy, promise everyone a program that has no need and you'll find out that within a WEEK, you need an additional 2 billion dollar injection to save a program.
And these are the same morons who want to run our health care? The same morons who say they will be able to keep health care spending under control? Here's a better reading of keeping health care that people will like...and it involves MINIMAL involvement of the liberals in government.
Otherwise what you'll get is a new kind of clunker program...one in which the government considers your parents and grandparents to be clunkers to be traded in rather than allowed to live a full life.
