The above is probably one of the most inane things I have read in a long time.
1. The house is right, 2 months is stupid. It simply means in 30 more days, we will be right back where we are now, bickering and not solving anything.
2. 2% is going to break the economy? Really? Where are your math skills? 2% of of a $2000.00 paycheck = $40.00
I don't even get $2000 paychecks, in fact the difference for me is going to be about $18.00.
If we lose it, then we lose it, big freaking deal. We need to get that pipeline building, we need to get jobs rolling, and you are worried about what? $20 bucks worth of paycheck that congress is going to be bickering about in 30 days,
yet again?
Fix it now, or don't fix it at all, there are more important things to be dealing and the longer this is an issue, the more time congress will spend on it instead of something more important.
2%.. are you serious. Drive less and save a tank of gas, there's your 2%
For others, I can work an extra hour or 2, and make up that whole 2%. That's 2 pennies on the dollar, 2 dollars out of a hundred. Big freaking deal!
