What do you mean "snowed" by? lol...hell, there's no snow job when he has the power to pass laws and veto others!!!!! That means...whether we like it or not, we're now going to be required to PAY for something we already cannot afford - many of us, that is - and if we couldn't pay for it before, how in the hell can he think - while sitting in his Ivory Tower and calling his side of the field "Progressive side" vs "Republican side" during his "speech"....well...well, just hell. Once again, those of us who are at the poverty line (but $63 over what it takes for food stamps!) are just plain stuck. We cannot move forward, are far from "progressing"...geez...I'm almost afraid to think of what's next..........................

They need around 125,000 new jobs a month just to account for population growth. They've already projected it to go above 10.0% before it bottoms out.

But before the UNstimulas package was put on the table, they did not see it going above 8%! Nearly 800 Billion Dollars wasted. When it takes nearly 450K to create a job - Hell, I'll take 2, and gladly work 16 hrs a day!

Let's face it...
The US Has the best Health Care in the world, as it is right now - that looks like it May change if these dummies pass ANY kind of bill. Nothing in life is Free - as shown by people who already have nationalized Health Care. Taking the price away, there are the wait times. As it stands, We have the best - don't fix what is not broken.

I hate to sound cruel or uncaring, However - Health Care and Health Insurance is NOT a Right given to us by our Constitution - it is something you have to EARN. If you work hard and can afford it - AND IF YOU WANT IT - you have the Freedom and Liberty as given to us by our Constitution to get what you want - or leave it, if you want.

Only 13% or so of the Un-stimulus package has been sent. At my calculations:

102,3100,000,000 has been spent, leaving 684,690,000,000 left in the coffers. Being that there were approximately 90 million tax returns filed in 2008, give it back to those you took it from: Give me my 8K back! Over 10 years borrowing these large sums from the Chicoms, that turns into over 80k.

Stop the spending - we do not need it, and most of us DO NOT WANT IT!

But then of course, what do the Dummycrats in Washington care? They have great insurance, and will after they are Removed from their office.

Sorry for the rant, I am just tired of watching my kid go broke and she didn't even start working yet - She's only 5!
