Top 10 Tax Sweeteners in the Bailout Bill

It was a pain to copy each individually, but take a look at how congress works. Its not bad enough that we are, according to some of them, on the edge of financial ruin, and need to spend $700,000,000,000.00 of our money, but they also STOLE an extra $115,000,000,000,00 [thats over 16% additional] for their own pet projects just to get this DO NOTHING bill passed. This is only the beginning - they haven't changed the regulations, nor the accounting principles that helped create this problem. This is yet another example of the poorest leadership by our elected officials.
Honestly - this one sits at the foot of the democrats - I don't wanna hear any "Bush signed it" BS. The Dems are totally in charge of this one and pass or fail - its on them.
It just passes a huge debt on to us and - oh have you heard yet? There are already rumors of another bailout.

Thanks congress.
