payroll tax holiday either. Maybe I misunderstood, are you assuming there will be no unemployment if the Democrats don't accept Obama's plan? If the Obama plan is voted down and it goes to the Republicans next year can't the Democrats hold up anything in the Senate with the filibuster unless there is an unemployment extension? My biggest concern with the plan is the cutting of the payroll tax. It gives the damn Republicans more fuel to blame SS for the deficit and they will use it for an excuse to make more cuts in SS.
