But if we do act with something that is half-assed, we risk making everything worse or have very little impact, and the voters would hand the economy to the party that got us in this mess. What can we do?
Exactly why I said it was a catch 22. I would much rather the original bill, it would be better for our economy with the original bill and I wish we could stick it to the GOP & force it to be past. Unfortunately the economic situation has gotten so out of control we don't have that option and this bill is better than not doing anything. Harry Reid being weak doesn't help things, but time is simply not on our side here.
