The results are compromises that are truly compromising, when most legislation could be improved by taking an Occam's razor approach.

The entire system of piggy-backing un-related projects into this or any bill, is disgusting abuse of thre power they are given. These financial projects may or may not have merit, (it takes working people to create walks, playgrounds(beneficial to children),lights and etc...) but there are more appropriate settings for these types of projects. Healthcare reform should be ABOUT healthcare reform and the conservatives and democrats that add un-related issues just insure the non-passage of reform. In fact if conservatives were smart, they would bog reform bills down with frivolous spending to ensure its defeat. It is the fastest way to kill legislation after all.
