Funny after all the Time you bashed Obama for bailing out the banks and auto makers

Smedley_buzkill

So, when your Halfrican God King Obama (PRAISE HIS NAME, OH YE LIBERAL SHEEPLE!!) with a Democrat controlled House and Senate did it, it was just fine?

Lonewolf

Not saying it was fine but considering how you bashed him for it and now your doing the same thing, what's changed why when you do it is 500 billion handed out anonymously is it hide your corruption.

We bashed Obama's bailout because the financial collapse was of THEIR own making. This is not. This is because of something beyond their control. Some would call it an act of God (even though it was the Chinese who unleashed this).

Lonewolf

The collapse was caused by Bush their should be no bailout. ..

One section of the bill would eliminate $11 billion worth of debt for the U.S. Postal Service -- money that it currently owes to the Treasury Department. It would also require the Treasury to "eliminate the $3 billion annual borrowing limit in current law," according to a summary of the bill released by House Democrats.

In addition to requiring each airline that receives money through the bill to have a union representative on its board, the House Democrats' summary says the bill would nullify a variety of executive orders issued by the Trump administration on collective bargaining.

Any airlines that accept assistance from the House Democrats' bill would be forced to "offset their carbon emissions and reduce their overall emissions by 50 percent by 2050." That matches with environmental plans from Democratic p**********l candidates Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders to have the U.S. reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

The House bill would also expand an FAA program that incentivizes airports to purchase environmentally friendly equipment and create a "cash for clunkers" program -- similar to one created by the Obama administration for cars -- but for older airplanes.

One section of Pelosi's bill allocates $1 billion and calls for federal authorities to immediately expand the "emergency lifeline broadband benefit" for every household that contains at least one "qualifying low-income consumer." That would include any "mass-market retail service by wire or radio that provides the capability to t***smit data to and receive data from all or substantially all Internet endpoints, including any capabilities that are incidental to and enable the operation of the communications service."

That benefit would include cell phones.

The National Republican Congressional Committee said the House bill is "full of unrelated liberal goodies, including the return of the Obamaphone," a program that the Government Accountability Office found was "rife with fraud" according to a Washington Times report at the time.

Two different sections in the House Democrats' summary of the bill address minimum wage. One provision would "require corporations that receive any federal assistance" to pay all of its workers at least $15 per hour. In addition to the minimum wage, that same provision includes a ban on golden parachutes, restricted bonuses and compensation for executives, a ban on stock buybacks and a ban on companies changing their collective bargaining agreements.

The House Democrats' bill provides $35 million to ensure that the D.C.-based John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts is able to remain operational and pay its expenses during the c****av***s-related economic slowdown.

The next page of the bill indicates that $300 million would be allotted for the National Endowment of the Arts with an additional $300 million for the National Endowment of the Humanities.

The House Democrats' bill has a variety of e******n-related mandates, including that states allow at least 15 days of early v****g for e******ns and no-excuse absentee mail-in v****g -- two things that could be useful in holding e******ns during the continuing c****av***s threat.

But is also prohibits states from "imposing additional conditions or requirements on the eligibility of a v**er to cast an absentee b****t such as notarization or witness signatures, and prohibits requiring identification to obtain an absentee b****t."

It also forces states to allow same-day v***r r**********n, a practice that is becoming more common throughout the U.S. but is far from universal.

Democrats' summary of their bill would eliminate "a minimum of $10,000 of federal and private student loan debt for each indebted borrower." Student loan forgiveness has been a go-to issue for Democrats in Congress and on the p**********l campaign trail.

I love that I don't even need to respond to you and address the things you say because you so obviously make yourself look ignorant without anyone's help.

Yeah and gave a million dollar grant to a single person that supposedly was studying a shrimp walking on a treadmill.
I probably know where that went and it wasn't in the shrimp tank.
You can still find a video of the shrimp on the treadmill.

Amen and Amen

We bashed Obama because he was funneling huge sums of money to "green" companies with "shovel ready" jobs. Well, the jobs were not there and the green companies, for the most part, failed/
