Looks like a spending bill to me. Sure, sounds great. Give the veterans jobs. I could give a veteran a job too but I won't because I don't have the money. Is that wrong of me?

Who paid for it? Where did the money come from? Where was the money being held? You mean we are trillions in debt and there was money available for this? How can that be? Explain please.

Basically, it's a bill that spends $1 billion dollars over 5 years. It would have been paid for over TEN years. Yeah, that is bad math. So, for it to be sustained for 10 years it would be paid for over 20 years? Dumb idea. That is the kind of cr@p that got us into this mess.
