Once we know the outcome - and Senator Ron Wyden's vote - I'll post an update.

<h2>Thanks for the link. If I’m going to vote I will go for YES. Well I just hope that the U.S. Senate Finance Committee will give a fair and well-planned outcome. We are still on recession and many of us are getting tired of waiting for governments actions’ for economic recovery.</h2>
