Here is video from "Cashin In" where they discussed President Obama's "Cash for Caulkers" plan to ask for over $20 Billion to make America's homes more "Green" - weather efficient. They talked about how the plan has worked so far in Texas, where the Dallas Morning News has reported that $1.8 million has been spent to weatherize just 7 homes!

Everyone on the panel, except for the Democrat Strategist, agreed that this is a perfect example of the inefficiency of big "boondoggle" Government programs. In fact, one panel member pointed out that the Obama Administration's whole approach to Government and Economics is displayed here in their belief that Government can produce jobs and wealth, when the truth is Government really just gets in the way of both, instead being profoundly wasteful with money. . . .

liberals have to be the most stupid folks on the planet.

500,000 jobs? That’s 10,000 jobs created in each state. These folks are complete idiots if they buy into that.

Almost $2 million to weatherize 7 homes? geezzzzz.........

My guess is that hussein never took any basic business courses with all the commie crap he was studying. The man has the business IQ of a pig.

That's only $257,000 per home. So, if it saves $100 per month on the utility bill, it will only take 214 years to break even.

What's so bad about that?

I don't for a second believe that they are at all honest in their beliefs. However, I agree with the insane part.
