Recently there have been an increasing number of reports concerning scams connected to applications for government grants. There are some reputable companies that charge fees for information on grants, but they are established companies that have been in business for some time. Now there has been increased interest in locating programs, government bureaucrats have started to label them as scams.
The Democratic bill recently passed does not contain stimulus grants from President Obama. Most people do not understand this. There is no financial provision for individual people. Though some programs do indirectly benefit individuals by helping them obtain a new job or offering assistance with their mortgage, there is no legislation guaranteeing them payouts from the government on an individual basis.
The United States is stuck in a very difficult situation. The economy is continuing to fail and the government continues to increase the deficit as if there are no consequences. Obama was elected because people wanted change, however, most people have no clue the trouble the country is truly in. It is true we are getting change. However, it is not the change people were hoping for.
The scam that is the most obvious is that being run by the US government. The stimulus bill that was passed by the government allows all of our tax dollars to be given away, proving to be the biggest scam the country has every run. It is important for people to begin understanding that we cannot continue to borrow against our children’s future. In order to put a stop to this, we need to vote these dishonest people out of office.
The problem lies in the fact that most people believe the government has access to unlimited funds, and have no true knowledge of how the economy really works. By continuing down the path we are following now, we will soon find out the spending more money is only multiplying our economy problems. Unfortunately, by the time most people figure this out, it will be too late to fix.

Do pot smokers really think they are fooling us by claiming they need a marijuana dispensary to get weed for medicinal reasons? Well, it looks like they did fool the new people in our government. It was the new people in our government who decided to make pot more available to more people. Many states have law allowing the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes. But federal laws banning pot have always been on the books and keeps pot use illegal because the federal law trumps state law.
Those people who are so sick that they need to smoke pot can thank our leader. Before his decision the federal government could always arrest a pot smoker even because federal law supersedes state law. So even if the state where was getting high in allowed the use of pot for medicinal purposes anti pot federal law could be used to arrest him. But our leader says to those sick pot smokers fear not… Smoke your medicine without fear of being arrested by the feds.
We know the pain pot cures. It has to do with easing what is known as the pain of living in this real world. If you live in this tough world of having to go to work for a demanding boss and with difficult co-workers then surely you have eight hours of pain you have to soothe with a few hits off your pipe.
Who cannot understand the need for a little medicine after such a hard day at work? Surely our leader understands this. And for you students that have to deal with tests and mean teachers. Who can blame you for being sick of school. Who can deprive the student of his medicine after a hard day in the classroom. All the pain filled pot smoker needs is a prescription from an understanding doctor.
Years ago I read this satirical article about Dan Quayle, the former vice president who was portrayed by the media as lacking in intelligence. The fictional article had him elected as president of the U. S. His first act was to legalize drugs like pot. As he signs the bill he is heard saying, “all right let’s give this a try.” The article then goes on to predict the terrible results of Quayle’s act and blames him for the mess.
He thought it was a good idea at the time but it did not work out the article goes on to say. Such articles prevented Dan Quayle from even considering running for president. He would have been laughed out of the first primary by those who wrote such articles about him.
But now we have a leader who some consider to be very intelligent who has in essence made pot legal. Do not fall for the medicinal qualification. Believe me everyone who uses pot is sick from one thing or another; a piece of paper from an understanding doc is all a pot smoker needs to get his pot quota for the month.
I wonder where the writer is who mocked Quayle with his article for legalizing pot? Perhaps since they think our present leader is so intelligent that they too are now saying, “all right, let’s give it a try.”

Did some people actually vote for Obama because they thought he was going to give them money? If this is true, what are these people going to do when they find out they will not be getting anything? The truth is that Barack Obama doesn’t have any money to give out and as a nation we are pretty much bankrupt.
This is a dangerous time for our country and people are just not informed about the situation. They don’t understand how the economy works and they think the government is some magical entity that has unlimited resources. Perhaps this is why so many people voted for Obama thinking they were going to be getting something for nothing. What is going to happen to his popularity when things continue to go downhill and perhaps even get worse faster?
Right now the United State government has no money to give. Many companies are going out of business and it is tough times all around. Yes, the government can just print more money but if they do that, it devalues all the existing dollars and hurts us all. That has never stopped the government from doing it before but eventually it will catch up to us and we will have lots of inflation. That time of high inflation just might be right around the corner.
Another thing that Obama is dealing with are student loans. He is hoping to take private industry out of the equation and have all the loans go through the government. His argument is that private industry trys to make a profit on the loans and the students suffer with the high interest rates they are charged. He thinks the government can give out the loans at a lower rate and everyone will benefit. There is much disagreement about this but one thing is for sure: colleges cost too much and our kids start off in life with a huge college loan they have to dig out from under.
Whether all this spending the US government is doing will end up working to keep our country out of trouble is yet to be seen. It could work but since we have never been in this predicament before, no one knows whether it will work. It may also put our country in a deeper hole than ever before too.

People still talk about the 2009 stimulus bill even though it was passed over a year ago. While it is still in the news almost every week, many people don’t seem to understand that it was there to give aid to large businesses as well as state governments. There was nothing in it for the average guy on the street.
If you are a person that needed help, one of your only options for benefiting from the bill was to get a job that came about as a result of the stimulus. It is also possible that you could have gotten some form of mortgage assistance as well but that didn’t apply to too many people. The bill did not impact government grants even though many people continue to look for grants thinking there are more of them available than usual.
Unfortunately, people fortunes have not gotten better from the bill. Today there is still high unemployment and jobs continue to be extremely hard to find. When you think about our economic troubles today, one might wonder if we got anything at all from that 787 billion dollar bill?
Whenever there is news about the government passing legislation of that size, there are many people who think the government is just handing out money. They could be remembering the stimulus check that many people got during President Bush’s last term and hoping there will be another windfall like that coming in the mail. That stimulus was meant to spur on the economy and the most recent stimulus bill was meant to try to save the economy.
People should know that there never has been anything that is really free money, as it has to be paid for in some way. It is too bad more people don’t pay taxes so that they can understand and feel the pain when taxes are raised. If higher taxes impacted everyone, more people would be opposed to them and maybe politicians would think twice before throwing away our tax dollars.
