The Stimulus bill – Who gets the money?
I was talking to a friend of mine last night about the “Stimulus” (spending) package put together by Pelosi and Reid. He said the problem was the “obstructionist” Republicans refused to endorse to it.
I asked him what he thought the stimulus package should be. He said give the money the Democratic Congress wants to allocate to their pet projects to the people instead. Give every taxpayer $1,500 or so to spend as they deem fit.
Isn’t that pretty much what the “obstructionist” Republicans are saying?
All you need to know about Labor Unions
All you need to know about labor unions is what Congress tells us by their actions.
Staff workers, aides, pages, and everyone else working for U.S. Congressmen in the United States Senate and the House of Representatives are prohibited by law to join or form a a labor union.
Why?
“It would impede their work,” say the Senators and Representatives.
Hmm….
