Yeah we have a deficit now that is around $150 Billion.

What does this have to do with the bill at hand?

Oops wrong thread, was responding to Tyrion's comment that we have a significant surplus, due to the lack of account for Nixcome.

I will certainly offer the redraft below before I would considering vetoing this bill.

I am favorable toward the redraft and would ask the Senate to vote for its passage.

IIRC, this estimate is based on a proposal different from what was actually passed.

The last estimate I saw for the Basic Income was $200 Billion, though it did forego the last couple changes made in the bill.

Aha. Ok, I'll make sure to keep that in mind.

I support the redraft, for the record.

Holy sh**t, we gots a President who presents Redrafts before da final vote is even over? I don't recall dying from those escapades on Saturday, but I am beginning to think it is possible. Wink

Anyway we still have to get to point b by way of point a.

Steps to Follow:
1. Matt:  Finish Final Vote and Present it to the President on or after November 05, 2013, 07:01:53 am (24 hour vote change period expires then).

2. Duke: Officially Submit your redraft

3. Sponsor (TNF) decides between vote or withdrawal of the redraft - already done.

4. Matt: Open a vote on the Redraft

By a vote of 6-4, the bill has passed. We now await the President's previously announed redraft.

Er, I'm pretty sure we can't assume Yankee meant the vote was open. Tongue

I would vote Aye for the record.

I have no authority to open votes as Senate Dean unless Matt were to leave for two days or give me expressed authorization. Neither is the case. It was a superflous note to Matt, superflous because I am sending him daily and even twice daily PMs about what is needing to be done.

Though we have had authortizations granted retroactively and I worded that line loosely enough to pull a BK possibly to save the lost time. Its thin though.

Would have preffered to keep the 14 exception thing, though.
