Zap is the only one who said he'd vote yes on what's been presented. I responded to Whack because he's feeding a troll who is incapable of communication without excessive hyperbole or personal insults that's on my ignore list.

People who can't dissect an issue or an offer without getting emotional, engaging in constant hyperbole and calling other people's names generally tend to get ignored... doesn't make what people like that have to say necessarily without merit, but it does make ignoring them very easy and often much more peaceful. I don't know if that's your intent, but that's the effect.

With respect to what's been "leaked", I've said my peace on another thread. Some good things, some WTF things, lots of meh things and one of the most important issues to me was not "leaked." The rates alone being what they're rumored to be, though lower than I'd like them to be, wouldn't necessarily tank it for me. The other stuff definitely would. From what I've seen leaked, I'm certainly not ecstatic or jazzed, but I'm willing to keep reading just as I suppose most are. My hope is that the likes of you step out of your tendencies to sh!t on other people and instead focus of breaking down issues, accept criticism if someone disagrees with you and engage in a civilized debate. Remember... plenty of people reading, far fewer post. Convince them with points and don't be too lazy to show your work. Doing the pigeon-playing-chess routine is one of the fastest ways to get tuned out.

Just my .02 cents, but you do you.
