Senate Health Care Bill Pass After Christmas

Reporting from Washington – After a dramatic month of sometimes round-the-clock negotiating and deal-making, Senate Democrats came together Saturday behind sweeping healthcare legislation, providing a powerful boost for President Obama’s top domestic policy goal.
The breakthrough came after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and his lieutenants engineered a delicately crafted compromise to prevent federal funding of abortions, the same issue that nearly stopped the House from passing its healthcare bill six weeks ago.
With the deal, Nebraska Sen. Ben Nelson, a strong opponent of abortion, became the 60th and crucial last …

Will late corporate card hurt credit score?

Dear Credit Card Adviser,
My wife was recently and unexpectedly part of a mass layoff from her employer, a Fortune 100 company. While employed, she occasionally traveled for work and would purchase her flight, meals, hotel, etc. using her American Express corporate card (that is in both her name and her company’s name). She never incurred any personal expenses using that card. She was laid off within four days of her last work travel, so she didn’t complete or submit an expense report before the layoff.

GUANGZHOU, China — For the first time, Chinese will buy more cars this year than Americans. Demand is so high that drivers put their names on long waiting lists for the most popular models.
“I’m disappointed, but what can I do?” asked Zhang Ge Lu, a 28-year-old interior designer. He came recently with two friends to a row of dealerships here in southeastern China to buy a black Toyota RAV4, only to be told that he would have to wait two months for delivery.
And it is not just cars. For more …

Unemployment Rates: High and Higher

Abstract
The unemployment rate in America jumped from 4.9 percent in late 2007 to 10 percent in November this year. The conventional wisdom that unemployment is rising because more people are losing their jobs is only partly true. Job-loss rates have increased, but the largest force driving unemployment is the sharp drop in private-sector job creation. The massive stimulus bill championed by President Obama did nothing to “create or save” millions of jobs. Heritage Foundation labor-policy expert James Sherk explains why any “jobs bill” that relies on govern­ment spending without improving …

Obama using grab-bag approach to fight recession

President Barack Obama, battling the worst downturn since FDR’s time, has put together a grab-bag program that borrows a little from Roosevelt but much more closely resembles the approach taken by recent presidents of both parties, who have leaned heavily on tax cuts to spur job creation.
Obama’s New Deal-lite approach represents a compromise between …
