Default Bailout Pork

Adding on $110B makes it more likely to pass? Disgusting.

Incidentally, I see that Brother Smith from Oregon has his face in the trough. Picked up some pork for a local arrow shaft manufacturer:

Quote:
"This proposal would exempt from the excise tax any shaft consisting of all natural wood with no laminations or artificial means to enhance the spine of the shaft used in the manufacture of an arrow that measures 5/16 of an inch or less and is unsuited for use with a bow with a peak draw weight of 30 pounds or more," Ellis wrote.


The estimated cost of the proposal is $2 million over 10 years, he wrote.
Shameless.
