Zim,
And he knew it before he did it too.
He had no intention of stimulating an economy or he could have done it much easier and it would have worked.
This was just money to keep the folks who LIVE on WELFARE for decades, generation after generation like in New Orleans for example, to continue to vote for the one who pours money their way for doing nothing whiole they sleep in every morning and do nothing all day but walk to the maibox to see what we, those who actually do work, have sent to them this month.
Your are dead right. The WELFARE STATE is ONE thing that just sucks dollars and keeps on growing.
Another is several federal agencies that should not even exist. Close them up and save the money. FOr example, De[pt. of Education is not needed.
That is a STATES RIGHTS determination and for the citizens in the STATES to decide their educational needs and priorities, not some smug intellectual in Washington who knows nothing about my area I live in.
ENERGY? Are we serious. How about a few others?
Close them down, and save the money.
Cut all the lifetime benefits of every member of Congress today!
LIMIT every term and then limit the number of sessions they meet. These are part time jobs made into full time money making machines.
Time for the party to end on all sides of the aisle.
Let me at them! I'll clean it up quickly.
