4. The money is coming from the $25 billion from the last session
that was given to upgrade the auto industry. Bush can still veto right now
so they have to be tricky with it.

5. They are also trying to tie it to healthcare
I hope accountability is included which I'm sure it will be.

Good news.

6. I think its a good idea to bypass junior in this as much as possible
after jan 20 we'll have a much better group to work on these kinds of problems

7. The bailout by Treasury of the people who make nothing
was atrocious without having ownership.

Jan 20th can't come soon enough.
