Corruption waste taxpayers dollars: Right on Obama

Corruption folks..is how our government got us in this mess. It is making plans with other folks money, while they share the wealth amongst their family and friends. In the words of former President William Clinton to Larry King, "we are going to be alright." The meaning behind Clinton's statement, is the working class who will have bear the burden of this debt. The $700 billion bailout is not going to hurt their pockets. Hey Bill has his global initiative...to invest in foreign dollars.

In the meantime, President George Bush pushes for more national defense spending.


$612 billion dollars will be budgeted for national defense:

WASHINGTON - Bowing to President Bush’s demands, the House passed a mammoth package for the Pentagon on Wednesday that contains a pay raise for soldiers, billions of dollars for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan — and some political protection for lawmakers during a tense election season

.


with little of the dollars going towards the soldiers protecting the nation:

The measure would permit $612.5 billion in spending for national defense programs in 2009, including $68.6 billion for operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. It also includes a 3.9 percent pay increase for military personnel, half a percentage point more than Bush requested.

So much for local economy job growth, unless we are in the mortgage business or building submarines. Oh, silly me I forgot about Harrison Square, Rennaissance Pointe, overassessing folks property...
