I'm not necessarily a politically involved person. Like alot of people, I'm busy with my life just trying to stay afloat during these hard economic times. However, I just learned of some of the items in the so called "Economic Stimulus Package" that is currently in the Senate, being no doubt hotly debated. This economic stimulus package includes:
$99,600 for Doorbells (creates 2 temporary jobs, what are they gonna do when all the doorbells are installed?)
$1,500,000 (that's 1.5 million folks) for prostitute housing (creates ZERO jobs)
$600,000, 000 for nature trails (creates 65 TEMPORARY jobs, what are they gonna do when the trails are done?)
$500,000 for a SINGLE dog park (creates ZERO jobs) I like dogs, BUT COME ON!
$6,000,000 to convert hybrid cars into plug-in cars (creates ZERO jobs) (only in one city, in one state)
and I love this one...
$500,000,000 (five hundred million dollars) for solar water heaters in Puerto Rico (creates 14 jobs)
Our country is in debt up to our eyeballs (and our kids eyeballs when they grow up)! I can honestly say I feel stimulated! Enough to vote out any and all democrats I can who support this ridiculous waste of MY MONEY! Who's with me?
Follow the links below...take a minute to let your government reps know what you want them to do. It only takes a minute, and if you can pass this along to your email buddies, maybe we can get the word out and outrage a few more people into taking a stand.
