November 10, 2007, 8:24am (report abuse)What's not to like about this Bill ? Does Congress really need to make it look like there throwing us a bone every year waiting for them to approve our Cola. Give me a break.

September 22, 2008, 10:43am (report abuse)The USA is taking 700 billion from the citizens to bail out incompetent companies. Will our percentage really be 6.2, or higher, or what is really left?
