Allocation of $1.2 Billion Tax Money
2/4/12$1.2 Billion given to black farmers.
This is kind of an old story but it kind of slipped under the radar and I am bringing the issue back to life.
Dept. of Agriculture
Through the Department of Agriculture, President Obama's administration authorized the use of $1.2 Billion of our tax money to go to black farmers as payback for years (decades) of discrimination. (Fox News, Nov 2010)
Affirmative Action
The Agriculture Department said that this was necessary in "addressing an unfortunate chapter in USDA's civil rights history."
Judge Approved This
In October 2011, a judge gave the government approval. (Huffington Post)
"This agreement will provide overdue relief and justice to African American farmers, and bring us closer to the ideals of freedom and equality that this country was founded on," Obama said in a statement.
Bypassing Congress
Obama is bypassing congress through the Departments so that he can enact policy and spend money. It is a power grab. Not only that, the judge that approved this allowed for reverse discrimination -- money given to people of only one ethnic background.
Biden: Our Energy Policy is the Best It's Ever Been
4/4/12When Joe Biden is pressed by a reporter about rising gas prices under the Obama administration, he says their energy policy is the best.
According to Joe Biden, gasoline prices are being driven up due to:
- the Arab Spring
- saber rattling against Iran
- speculators investing in the market
The administration loves to take credit for all of the drilling going on in America despite the fact that the drilling is on private land. What about public land?
Regardless of how gas prices are going up, more domestic production of oil would help out trade deficit. It would bring more money into the United States! Imagine the growth potential that we could have in this country if we drilled more of our own oil.
Biden forgot to mention Obama gave away to Russia oil filled islands off of Alaska where the conservationist claim are homes to the Polar Bears and Seals.PETA now has to deal with the Russians
Obama Wants to Cut $12.9 Billion from Troops
Liberals defend the health care of teachers, unions, and illegal immigrants. But when it comes to the troops, they want to cut.A proposal by the Obama administration would save $12.9 Billion by 2017 from the Tricare system.
From Fox News
The proposed increases in health care payments by service members, which must be approved by Congress, are part of the Pentagon’s $487 billion cut in spending. It seeks to save $1.8 billion from the Tricare medical system in the fiscal 2013 budget, and $12.9 billion by 2017.
“We shouldn’t ask our military to pay our bills when we aren’t willing to impose a similar hardship on the rest of the population,” Rep. Howard “Buck” McKeon, chairman of the House Armed Services Committee and a Republican from California, said in a statement to the Washington Free Beacon. “We can’t keep asking those who have given so much to give that much more.”
After reading this I think that the Troop need to become a UNION and have Collective Bargaining and have definite job descriptions. After all the Government workers have a Union why not the Armed Services, What would be cheaper for Obama is to send all the troops home and then have them stand in front of their coffins and shoot them if he refuses to give them Medical Insurance. But I would not do that to my boys, I believe all my troops deserves Free Medical for Life after all they put their life on the lie for America.
