Read the full text of Emergency Economic Stabilization Act (aka Bailout Plan)

The bill will probably be voted on today (or tomorrow). If you want to contact the reps to sway their vote one way or another, you can find that information here.

If it gets to the senate, you can contact them here.

No matter what way the vote goes...this unofficially starts the beginning of the zombie invasion.

At one point, I was despairing that they were wasting all this money on propping up a bunch of fat cat bankers, which meant we couldn't possibly have single-payer healthcare like all the advanced nations on Earth. But just now, I realized: We CAN still have healthcare...if we dismantle (a small fraction of) the military industrial complex.

So thanks, Wall Street! Now we can kill two birds with one stone.
