Since The GOP Did Not Deliver, Strip All Concessions To GOP, And Repass Bill?
The GOP did not live up to its bargain. Therefore, if the Democrats are going to do the heavy lifting, then strip out all those concessions that were made to the GOP:

1. Really nail CEO pay and golden parachutes.
2. Revise the bankruptcy laws so that BK courts can restructure mortgage loans.

In other words, they did not keep their end of the bargain, so if the Democrats have to do it solo, why should the Democrats make any concessions?
