How do you give a housing tax credit to low income people, when they dont pay income taxes in the first place? My bet is it is like the Earned Income Tax Credit - totally refundable, even if you never pay a dime of tax.

Don’t believe it was a “mistake”. This was cleverly crafted to obtain maximum chaos.

How would they know? You can bet every congressman/senator had a staff member scouring the bill to make sure their pork is in it.

SO the mistake was that they left off more pork? It would be rich if that was enough to derail it but unfortunately it won’t be.

. Landrieu said the money is needed for 2 more years to complete the projects the money is needed for so long as the Republic lasts. The heirs of the recipients cannot in good conscience be turned out of their homes, nor can their heirs. The poor we shall always have with us and the Government will guarantee their status.

Ok so with this problem, can we run the clock out so the dream act isn’t voted upon? Is that realistic?

How would they know? Nobody even reads the damned things until long after they've been passed.LOL! It's not yet at the "Unreadable" level of porkiness, so therefore it doesn't "size up" to congressional standards.... but they will do their damndest to get it there.

She said a program to extend low income housing tax credits for people who lost homes during Hurricanes Katrina Good Lord...how many decades are we going to be paying for Katrina? I still want to know what happened to all those gazillions of dollars that were DONATED willingly to the relief effort. Each person in NOLA should have a nice replacement house and a car with that cash that flowed in immediately after the storm.

Its been 5 years. When can we expect they will get back on their feet? Every time there is an NFL game from N'Orleans I want to scream. Usually takes about five minutes until the start the "Can a city come back, blah, blah, blah?" routine. ESPN is the worst, NBC not far behind.
Meanwhile Mississippi has recovered without a whimper by the media.
