Economics

Last night the US Senate worked on the Economic Stimulus that last well into the night. At last count, there were 263 amendments. Most of these did not passed do to the fact they violated Senate Budget Rules. The one the struck me as odd was the McCain S.AMDT 279. This would remove all “Buy American” requirements. McCain motion failed.

I had thought that the Stimulus Bill was to create jobs in the US not more jobs in China. If would like to see more on this Bill click on the link below.
