House Passes Bonus Tax Bill
Just over half of the 'Phants voted against it, and all but 6 Democrats (I'll post who and what should be done later) voted for a 90% tax on bonuses of companies getting bailed out by the government.
On some level I understand just how this is really a very small part of the bailout, but from news, to outrage, to bill passing the house is about 4 days, and it means something, though I'm not sure who gets that yet.
