3. Yes, they desparately need it, but if the current bill passes,
the entire COUNTRY will go broke.

The Republicans aren't going to let this pass and, I'm sorry, I don't want to see couples inheriting $10 million not have to pay taxes on it and I don't want 2 percent ($120 billion) taken away from Social Security insurance! That will give the Republicans and DINOs cause to slay Social Security.
