You may have voted but there's nothing for you
To be sure, there are millions and billions of Dollars for Iraq. Iraq schools, Iraq houses, Iraq government. There is money for Kellogg Brown and Root, Haliburton and a handfull of corporations in Iraq. There is money for big medical insurance companies but there is no money for you
President Bush intends to stick his middle finger up at Us citizens this year as he plans his domestic budget.
Quote:
They said the president's proposed budget for the 2005 fiscal year, which begins Oct. 1, would control the rising cost of housing vouchers for the poor, require some veterans to pay more for health care, slow the growth in spending on biomedical research and merge or eliminate some job training and employment programs. The moves are intended to trim the programs without damaging any essential services, the administration said.
Now I'm all for effeciently run organizations, but when you got millions and billions being thrown at corporations who don't do squat for the citizens of the country the money is coming from, then there is a problem.
