[RPB]

This probably won't come true, since I'm telling you before blowing out the Santa Candle but

I wish there was a place for "comments" or at least Like/Dislike buttons on the US Senate & House Bill websites.

over 13 trillion in debt, plenty of homeless and unemployed, and bills introduced lately are:

Doesn't this one ought to read "Funding an all expenses paid jolly to St. Petersburg, Russia on account of, oh, I don't know, tigers or something."
