Senator says food stamp partnership with Mexico ‘pressuring’ immigrants to enroll

July 20, 2012 By Don

There are 46 million people on the Food Stamp Program and it is costing us 80 BILLION  DOLLARS A YEAR.  Yes congress does nothing.  When this Administration started

There were 32 Million people on the program.  Congress need to look at the requirements and down size them.  Let your congressman/woman know.

The Mexican government has been distributing information about the U.S. food  stamp program through its embassy and dozens of consular offices, a partnership  that one Republican senator says is the latest example of an “aggressive” push  to “expand enrollment regardless of need.”

Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., top Republican on the Senate Budget Committee,  raised concerns about the program in a letter to Agriculture Secretary Tom  Vilsack — one week after he complained about a Spanish-language ad campaign  encouraging residents to go on food stamps.(Read More)

Unbelieveable

April 15, 2012 By Don

SPENDING $133,000,000 (PLUS INTEREST) TO SAVE $280,000 A YEAR. The federal government is spending $133,000,000 to make a government office building in Portland, Oregon “green” by planting 18 stories of shade trees. American Spectator pointed out that it will take 475 years for taxpayers to break even ($133,000,000 divided by $280,000). However, Tea Party Economist points out that this assumes an interest rate of zero for 475 years! “The idea is that the cost savings are in the energy efficiency,” says Caren Auchman, a G.S.A. Spokeswoman. teapartyeconomist.com, 4-11-12.

Can you believe this.  We want the government to STOP SPENDING AND WHAT DOES  IT DO *******SPEND MORE OF OUR TAX MONEY
