Well if Obama keeps his word, he wont sign it. Now comes the point where you merge the two bills, and in doing so, it's going to cost a LOT more. The only way you can get both to sign it, is to keep all the pork in it.
Signing it is political suicide. The reasons why:
- It has to be budget neutral or he lied.
- He said no raise in taxes for anyone making less then 250K. This taxes people making 200K (and in a lot of ways, it taxes everyone).
- It taxes people with great insurance, and that's all the unions. They won't be happy.
- and most importantly, 75% of the people of the United States don't want this bill.
- If he signs this bill, he loses in 3 years. He knows this.
When the 1,500+ page bill hits his desk, it will be interesting to see what he does.
