More crap snuck into the budget bill, which was not printed or put on the Internet before the Congress had to vote on it. A provision to make savings accounts for private schools tax-deductible. Like the voucher idea, but more regressive. There were a full two minutes of debate allotted to that one.
And a provision making the new cigarette taxes applicable towards the fines the tobacco companies are supposed to pay under the settlement.
