the guy is a gen genius
do you have any idea how easy it is to get gov money??
food stamps, disability
student loans
fha loans??
heck what red tape
best president ever for stealing money and giving it to those that don’t work.
Wow, that’s not too much, eh?
Actually, I’ve cursed those accordion sleeves a lot, but it’s been a long time since I’ve seen them. Most were replaced with much more effective and less cumbersome designs long ago. The accordion sleeve problem is really a non-issue now except maybe in a couple of states (which probably deserve the extra aggravation anyway).
This whole (mis)administration is a con job.
As Reagan once said “when liberals and Democrats want to cut red tape they take their scissors and cut it length-wise”
Oh thank you thank you THANK YOU President Ubama! Now when I apply for my welfare handout to send my kid to college, it will be MUCH easier. The LA Times is giving rat operatives a free forum now? That paper just keeps getting worse.
Come on Koch Bros! Buy this Pylish Hit and either fumigate it or shut it down. Either way they would be doing the patriotic thing.
I guess I must be brilliant because I filled out the Fafsa forms for both of my kids 4 years ago and had no trouble except we received no free money for schools because my family is super rich but we were able to get Parent loans
and my girls got loans as well. Not to mention when Obama was elected they shifted the loans to the government and
don’t you know they raised the interest rates, good thing the mean old private sector can’t make those student loans anymore or the rates would be really high I am sure.
Obama is a lying JackAss and so is the rube who wrote the article.
Also glad to know Obama is getting credit for a program the terrible, awful President Bush put in place I am sure Obama thought about it first while he was meeting with his choom gang.
I guess we can forgive a government for taking away our freedom if they perform the modern equivalent of making the trains run on time.
I've been all over the country and only ever saw those in Khalifornistan.
To date the regulations to implement Obamacare make a stack over 7 feet tall.
“Ever struggle with those accordion-style rubber sleeves on nozzles at the gas station? The sleeve—technically a “vapor recovery nozzle”—was required by the EPA to keep gasoline vapors from leaking into the air. But most cars and trucks now have technology that does the job better, so last year the EPA abolished the nozzle requirement. Because each sleeve-equipped nozzle can cost as much as $300, the change will save gas stations thousands of dollars.”
So, mandating that gas pumps have these (seemingly complex) sleeves, at a cost of $300, was a good thing.
Now, NOT requiring them, after the money was already spent, is also a good thing.
Perhaps the next step is the Feds requiring the REMOVAL of these sleeves, at a cost of more than $300. And that will also be a good thing.
Voila, the feds can claim credit for doing three good things even if that leaves us right back where we were.
Except they added more and more rules and bureaucrats, ‘mandated’ untold millions out of businessmen’s pockets (not counting kickbacks from the sleeve vendors), annoying and impoverishing millions as the end result.
Only the feds would call this a success, and only the MSM would trumpet it joyously.
