Obama's Shovel-Ready Treasury

[freedombecki]

Obama's Exclusive George Soros Waivers - Michelle Malkin - Townhall Conservative Columnists

Thanks for this one, too, daveman. It shows how the Obama and Leftist Lockstep mechanism wants "all Americans (except Obama pals and campaign luxury contributors) to follow certain legislations with certain loopholes certain billionares can procure profits, which if divided by a million, could make another million people millionaires.

Especially, as Michelle Malkin noticed, if the last name begins with "S" and ends with "oros".

Please read Daveman's link (above.) Thanks.

The Useful Idiots will refuse to read it. They don't read anything that doesn't show Obama in a holy light.

I mean this in a good way, but Michelle Malkin is a little deep, and even I had to read it twice to be able to summarize her essence.

If we could only dumb Michelle Malkin down a little bit, people would know what this administration and its cooperatives are doing to the budget while screaming "racists!" "Boooooooosh" and "Bhaynnnnnner" to keep the American public's eye off the ball of their putting the slip to the money in the treasury.

And needless to mention, the President's orders sidestepping a Congress that will not make laws he demands, are legislation from the executive branch, which is wrong city imho.

The people who most need to read it are the ones who pretend it simply doesn't exist.

Or they'll get all misogynist on Malkin.

All voters need to know what's going down in Ms. Pelosi's office right now. It is not the best interests of the people of the United States of America, that's for sure. She and others just like her are just feathering their own nests, while working people with kids are paying taxes and too busy working to pay attention to the fact that the Congress will take their family's business away someday, leaving their heirs with no livelihood if they worked for the business once they got old enough to. This is particularly hard on well-trained farm children who grow up and have the government dividing their parent's land up or raising the tax on the property until they're forced to sell good farmland so they can put up a parking lot and a polluting industry outside city notice.

At least the Republican front runner gets it:

Mr. Romney, speaking at a technology trade association breakfast meeting, said that by giving the failed California company a $535 million loan guarantee, the Obama administration made it tougher for the nation’s solar energy entrepreneurs to compete.
“When they put $500 million into Solyndra, they thought they were encouraging solar energy in this country,’’ Mr. Romney told a friendly audience packed with business executives. “They did the opposite. Because when they put $500 million into Solyndra, the other 100 entrepreneurs in America working on solar energy just lost any potential to get capital.’’
He added: “When the government chooses to put in $500 million, who wants to put $2 million in some idea from this person in Montana? No one.’’

The impact on other entrepreneurs never occurred to the White House. They just wanted to repay a big donor.

At least that money was repaid.

Assuming you paid any kind of Federal taxes, your share of the Solyndra debacle was flushed down the toilet, never to be seen again.

But don't you DARE criticize Obama for his corruption.

325,000,000+ Americans do not owe Obama's donor's or Nancy Pelosi's family squat. Yet, their fingerprints are all over the piggy bank, and they hover over the US Treasury like a hurricane-force tornado twisting the moneybags open and screwing the American people out of assets that belong to the people.

It's wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong.

The government will most likely not lose a penny ont eh Solyndra loan because they get Solyndras assets which equal almost 50% more then the government loan. Also the Solyndra loan was part of the DOE's energy loan program which so far has cost less then expected and created 75 dollars in benefits for every 1 loaned out

In a development that should make the average taxpayer’s head spin, the U.S government is doling out tens of millions dollars to support programs that help states spend their federal money more efficiently.

It’s definitely a new era of government spending. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is allocating $20 million to “improve performance and boost the capacity of state and local governments to implement their federal block grant programs for housing and community development.” In this case the cash will support “technical assistance” projects that guide local governments trying to “stabilize” in the aftermath of the foreclosure crisis.

The money will go to three types of “results-oriented technical assistance and capacity building,” according to HUD; comprehensive assistance to help grantees improve their basic program performance; limited assistance to grantees that have clearly identified program gaps; and innovative assistance to help grantees in restructuring their housing and community development programs to better meet the needs in their communities.

“These funds will help our partners work smarter and stretch federal investments for the greatest possible benefit to the people and places we serve,” said Mercedes Márquez, HUD’s Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development. “In today’s budget environment, we not only have to do more with less, we have to perform at a very high level to make certain limited taxpayer dollars have the real and lasting impact.”

Eligible applicants include state or local governments, public housing authorities, nonprofit community groups, educational institutions, Indian tribes, for-profit organizations, public or private organizations and other “intermediaries.” In other words, pretty much anyone can qualify for this particular grant.

That’s because the agency has made a “fundamental change” in the way its traditional “program-specific” technical assistance has been structured. It will be replaced with a new “cross-program” approach. What does this all mean? Nobody really knows since it’s purposely written in a mystic government lingo so regular people can’t truly understand it.

What we do know is that HUD has initiated a number of controversial programs under the Obama Administration. Last fall the agency launched a special initiative to help illegal immigrants nationwide and it intervened against Arizona’s strict immigration control law by warning that federal housing obligations prohibit “discrimination against protected class members.” HUD also deployed its assistance secretary to intercept a Fremont Nebraska measure banning illegal aliens from renting in its jurisdiction.

Solyndra's assets were sold to pay rich creditors, not the people of the United States, starcraftzzz, which was news some time back. The government lost $535,000,000, because Obama called on the Treasury department to "hurry up the money" to Solyndra on account of 1100 employees. Doh. 1100 employees lost their job overnight, and Fremont, California, was faced with the loss of millions of dollars in social programs and lost revenues plus the need to assist them until they could find other jobs.

When the press peels itself away from worship in the presence of the one, gains some perspective, and returns to the objective. And that ain't gonna happen soon.

Here is a Group that loves to tap into Federal Money. You got to love how they spin Profiling into "Screening". When We do it, it is very bad, when they do it, it is only proper.

What are the approaches investors typically utilize in SRI?

Screening, which includes both positive and negative screens, is the practice of evaluating investment portfolios or mutual funds based on social, environmental and good corporate governance criteria. Screening may involve including strong corporate social responsibility (CSR) performers, avoiding poor performers, or otherwise incorporating CSR factors into the process of investment analysis and management. Generally, sutainable and responsible investors seek to own profitable companies that make positive contributions to society. "Buy" lists may include enterprises with, for example, good employer-employee relations, strong environmental practices, products that are safe and useful, and operations that respect human rights around the world.

Conversely, many sustainable and responsible investors avoid investing in companies whose products and business practices are harmful to individuals, communities, or the environment. It is a common mistake to assume that SRI "screening" is simply exclusionary, or only involves negative screens. In reality, SRI screens are being used more and more frequently to invest in companies that are leaders in adopting clean technologies and exceptional social and governance practices.

Enough Already I can't take it anymore. Tell me again that it is only money.

This thread is to note the long line of Democrat-only invitees to exploit the American people's money.

You have already heard about Solyndra.

You have already heard Obama contacted the treasury, putting the people's tax contributions to the tune of a half billion dollars to prop up this troubled and decimated Obama contributor's business that took de money and ran with the payroll, leaving 1100 people out of a job in California a year after the business got all that quickie cash from you and me.

I would like to dedicate this song to Giv-a-Mint Obama, Nancy Pelosi's
relatives who are getting all this money so quickly and with
such a guarantee attached, that they will never have
to worry about money for the duration of their pampered lives.
Half of the dedication goes to the MSM, who lets them get away with it:

Reminds me of an Obamabot desperate to distract attention from The One's corruption.

Wrong just pointing out that the corruption is not all in one party.

No, you were ignoring the reek of corruption in your favored party by pointing to Bush. Here is a newsflash: most of the right hates Bush MORE than the left does. Bush was a terrible president.

Now, the real problem is not that Bush was corrupt and that Obama is corrupt but that the corruption seems to get more severe and even more blatant every damn year. Wake up, we need to stop this crap here and now.
