Okay, Go Ahead and Spend a Little Here

For all of my rants against wasteful government spending. Here is a case where I think that the President and Congress may be on the right track for a change. Although I gag at the price tag, suspecting that a good third of the money will end up being wasted by abuse and corruption, I like the idea of helping people who could use some extra $$$ actually go out and work for it in a positive way that serves the community rather than line up at a window for a handout (Can we get the investment bankers to go out and pick up trash along the freeway?) - Citizen Zane
