54. I think the whole deal is absurd except for the bottom bracket and am not pleased
the top 2% cuts were not rescinded immediately.

This is the most wasteful borrowing ever. The activity struggles to offset the drag of the interest.

Why are people who opposed the policy now so adamant about "their's"?

Meanwhile, the tax base shrinks because fewer and fewer have income and we are so raggedy that our sewers are deteriorating and eventually will be in the water.

To borrow this kind of money to still lose services, cut government payrolls, and to maintain and expand our infrastructure deficit is pretty damned insane and is certainly a case of the snake eating its tail.
