Wow apparently the bill that the Republicans voted against would have cost $7.1 billion!
$7 billion just to cover the medical expenses for supposed health problems of emergency workers due to 9/11.
LOL!
Ridiculous. If it was $7 million it would have been reasonable, or even $70 million. But $7,000 million for a few rescue workers' supposed health problems. USA is crazy.

It was going to be paid for by closing a corporate tax loophole. So it wouldn't have cost tax payers anything.

That doesn't make it any better.
Do you understand how ridiculous and sickening that incredible amount of money is for supposed health problems of a few rescue workers? It's like the whole budget of a smaller nation.
Don't you see there are no proportions?! That is what is disgusting about this story, not the Republican no.
