No, I don't. But I do believe that the real "heavy lifting" to pay for it will be done by the wealthiest. And that's probably as it should be.

I agree that's it seems to be moving along pretty quickly, Bucco. But I think the whole process will come to a screeching halt when the bill hits the Senate. I'm hopeful that they will turn out to be the "deliberative body" that the framers of the Constitution had in mind.
But then, those were the same guys who put the money back into a funding bill for the F-22 Raptor jets that the Pentagon doesn't want. Maybe they only deliberate on issues that don't affect their constituencies and special interests.
