dems don't have quite the power they thought they had.

as for the link above, that's a horrible idea and plan. i hope it doesn't happen.
I think that just about every idea, bill, plan or budget that has come out in the last 2 months has been almost entirely anti business. I know most people have little understanding or even interest in economics except talking about how bad it is but it is beyond me how this country is going to be able to rally economically if business is continually undermined and harmed? I understand politics and the Democrats class warfare. Hell it helped win them the election. But if this guy doesnt start HELPING business, I dont know who is going to create all these new jobs that are needed? This is a liberal, social agenda driven policy. We are going to MAKE people save. We are going to turn the 15% that save to 80% by forcing business to do the dirty work. Of course that will HURT business overall which will cause more layoffs and further contraction which will leave the worker less money in the end.

and I thought the idea was for everyone to spend? Loosen up credit, borrow money and spend. That how we were going to help the economy.....
