Unbelievable, Bush signs housing bill

Fuck bush and his pack of incompetent cronies

Democratic leaders, recognizing that the measure could be one of the last items to become law during what's left of their abbreviated election-year schedule, tacked on an $800 billion increase, to $10.6 trillion, in the statutory limit on the national debt.


They act like this never has to be paid back. This countries leaders are a joke taking taxpayer money and giving it to private corporations.

STFU

This infuriates me more than I can even begin to explain...so I won't.

In Vegas, 60-75% of foreclosed properties were/are investment properties of speculating assclown douche-moron realtors. Fuck them. Fuck them up their stupid fucking talentless box asses.

Why the angry response?

I am from NY and took 9-11 personally.

If Minnesota was attacked, you too might be thankful that you are now safe.

God forbid someone lets loose with a nuke in Minneapolis-St Paul, but, if they do, it will be interesting to see if you change your tune.

here's a rider i dont know if any of you saw which was attached to the bill...thanks Chris Dodd for the rider. and a special thanks to Bank of America for writing most of this bill to save their asses from the Countrywide pending implosion

Revenue Provisions

Payment Card and Third Party Network Information Reporting.

The proposal requires information reporting on payment card and third party network transactions. Payment settlement entities, including merchant acquiring banks and third party settlement organizations, or third party payment facilitators acting on their behalf, will be required to report the annual gross amount of reportable transactions to the IRS and to the participating payee. Reportable transactions include any payment card transaction and any third party network transaction. Participating payees include persons who accept a payment card as payment and third party networks who accept payment from a third party settlement organization in settlement of transactions. A payment card means any card issued pursuant to an agreement or arrangement which provides for standards and mechanisms for settling the transactions. Use of an account number or other indicia associated with a payment card will be treated in the same manner as a payment card. A de minimis exception for transactions of $10,000 or less and 200 transactions or less applies to payments by third party settlement organizations. The proposal applies to returns for calendar years beginning after December 31, 2010. Back-up withholding provisions apply to amounts paid after December 31, 2011. This proposal is estimated to raise $9.802 billion over ten years.
