Anyone's region getting much stimulas money? In our local paper today it states Portland Maine (pop 62K) is getting $1.8M to fight obesity. $500k to the schools for salad bars and signage and education. $1.3M to the city to hire nutritionists to study restaurant menus so they can add nutritional language, 80 bike racks, more biking lanes and running an education campaign.
The state is getting $1.2M for the same thing. This doesn't really seem like to me what the money was intended for. |

The stimulus is a lot of BS its being used like a private stash of money to support the Obama agenda. The are not stimulating any new jobs and the health care bill will surely cost a lot of jobs. This government is totaly inept and its policies are a disaster.
Remember in November!!!! |

would it be a bad thing if Obama reversed policy on drilling off of the East Coast? or should we keep depending on the Middle East and thier close ties with a certain party?

Is that all you got? He was against more drilling during his campaign; strongly as I recall.

Eric, if you think business is bad now, wait until interest rates more than double because the US government went on a major spending binge and got nothing for it but progressive social policy. Never waste a good crisis as they say.

Drilling here will not make the price at the pump go down, but it would be a good start on jobs at least for a few. But I think we the "Ragheads", do not want to obey, screw it shoot a nuke at em, let em swim in it.. We dont need forgein oil anymore..

red dot, push button start lawn mower
towel head, pull start lawn mower why cant we be like Canada? self sustaining, keep our noses out of trouble, borders up against a big bully, never hear from them. Drilling here may keep money here? I hope I live to see the day we tell the Saudi's to F off, we would never ever again be in turmoil, arm them, and say your on your own....actually, because of thier beliefs they are doing a pretty good job of strapping bombs on themselves and blowing sht up |
