Not to mention that most of the things that people have complained in the stimulus bill when COMBINED only total less than 1% of the entire package. I mean seriously, if you are going to attack the stimulus bill, how about you focus on the 99% that is there rather than the 1%. |
Unfortunately, earmarks are what makes bills go 'round. A lot of politics is based around the quid pro quo; "i help you out, you help me out," i.e. You'll have my full vote if you include X in your bill.
