has in it the provision for around $400 million to be allocated to help those that will lose their jobs. Think about that for a minute. They are literally acknowledging that Americans WILL LOSE JOBS. And their token is to allocate $400 million to compensate those that lose their jobs. Where oh where will the $400 million come from? If you guess from the grateful corporations whose profits will grow, you lose and are an idiot. If you guessed from taxpayers you win partial credit. There is a move afoot to get the money from MEDI-FRACKING-CARE. You heard me. And Democrats are involved in this murder of our lower classes.

No one has given any reason to show how this POS will help the middle and lower classes of this country.
