POPSHomeless Veterans Bill Faces Veto Threat Davis-Bacon is a 1931 law that governs pay for public works projects. It requires that employers pay the local prevailing wage -- i.e., what everyone else in the area pays for workers. As hardships for employers go, this isn't one. Bush, in a move so cartoonishly evil that you expect a couple of kids from a Disney movie to show him up in the end, opposes housing for homeless vets for purely ideological reasons. FDR must never, ever be encouraged or he'll just pass more of these laws, I guess -- seriously, trying to figure out what goes on in these guys' heads is a losing proposition. None of it ever makes any damned sense at all.
