DETROIT -- Detroit's homeless and low-income residents have another opportunity for a chance at millions of stimulus dollars.
The money is available to help low-income residents from becoming homeless and homeless residents to find housing.
Thousands of people lined up Tuesday.
Some people in line falsely believed they were registering for $3,000 stimulus checks from the Obama Administration.
City officials told Local 4 that Detroit was granted $15 million to help residents pay bills and their rent or find temporary housing for the homeless.

So Obama last night raised the TRICARE fee for military veterans and retirees, but gives money away like it is water.

So Obama last night raised the TRICARE fee for military veterans and retirees, but gives money away like it is water.0bama also cut off health benefits to a group of World War 2 veterans from Alaska, so screwing our troops and our veterans is just par for the course for this disgrace of a president.
But the amusing part of wasting even more money on the poor is this... when was the last time the USA came out of a recession on the fruits of the labor of the poor?

Wouldn't it make more sens to give the millions to small Detroit businesses so they can hire these people?

They Do seem a little “chubby” for not having any money.

Wanna bet that the check is NOT contingent upon passing a drug test?

They find the energy to get off their butts when there’s free money involved.

Look at thet picture.
Tell me why the rest of the world despises “us”. Especially the hardworking Asians who intend to stop buying our debt. Do they think that line is ever going to pay them back? How’s that for “full faith and credit”?.

Based on what I see in that video still shot; why not file an EEOC complaint that a disproportionate number of blacks are receiving the money?
I don't see any blue eyes in that picture?

The last time someone refilled a swimming pool by dipping water out of the deep end and dumping it into the shallow end?
