Does the Senate’s two month extension of the payroll tax reduction prove?

Does the Senate’s two month extension of the payroll tax reduction prove they have no idea how the laws they make effect the rest of us?

Payroll tax is calculated and reported on a quarterly basis (3 months) it is currently not possible to have a two month rate. In order for this to happen the forms would need to be redesign. The government computers would need to be reprogramed and since most payroll reporting is required to be filed electronically new specs would have be sent to all the payroll software vendors and payroll services. Those companies would have to rewrite their software. All of this would have to happen before we can issue paychecks to people in January about a week from now.

    Exactly! Democrats pander to the workers and not the small business owners. They constantly talk about helping small business and then pass laws making our lives more difficult. It is all rhetoric designed to gather support from the ignorant.

    Congress lacks the insight to consider details like that. They just rubber stamp a bill and let the operations-level people sort it out.
