UPDATE:  Citi aborts.

It’s a PLANE.

Hmm, that $45 billion sure gets spent on stuff that I would consider a luxury during these hard times.

The French-made luxury jet seats up to 12 in a plush interior with leather seats, sofas and a customizable entertainment center, according to Dassault’s sales literature. It can cruise 5,950 miles before refueling and has a top speed of 559 mph.

Anyhow, this is a  super nice one that you, the taxpayer will NEVER EVER get to use.

But you may look at it.

Spoiler Sen. Levin wants the Treasury to halt the purchase.

I think he is upset that the plane is not American made.
