Is there any update regarding this issue? There is a lot of buzz right now regarding this stimulus bill? I think this must be followed up. Looking forward into it.

This talks about a huge amount of money. I wonder if they still manage to handle things like this. I mean, ordinary people (out of the gov) can't even manage to budget this kind of amount you were saying.

Thank you for addressing this issue. While congress was in session, there was very little coverage in any major news media concerning this issue. Nowadays, there aren't too many citizens who would be against the bill, especially after the rescue package was passed. Perhaps if there would have been more major media coverge, , congress wouldn't have voted as they did.
I urge you to go to Opencongress.org and read. It is the most commented upon bill. I feel this needs to be mentioned as well. Again, thank you for your coverage. I and the people at Opencongress would be greatly appreciative if you would continue to cover this until the issue is addressed..
