CBO Says BHO’s TARP Is $$ More Than Estimated

The Congressional Budget Office quietly announced that the Troubled Asset Relief Program will be much more expensive than originally figured. Instead of costing $189 billion, the cost is now up to $356 billion.

ya know, if a mechanic (or anyone else) ran their business like the feds do, they'd be in jail... I dare a mechanic or contractor to give an estimate, get approval, start work, and then present a bill for almost double the estimate and see what happens.
