MORE AT LINK.....................
I’ve given up on fighting.
Now trying to figure out how to cash in.
What does that mean? More wheelchair accessible ramps and wider doorways and hallways?
In-home medical care..........................
Whites are banned from all of it
Gimme a break. We gave the cable companies regional monopolies decades ago to do this. They charge us a fortune, even though they have already made back their infrastructure costs, in order that they could cover the costs. They are in debt because they have been buying each other's regional monopolies out through leverage financing.
BINGO but the freezer money stays put.
You want to cash in? Write a grant proposal saying you want to research biodegradable plastics as electric wire insulation.
Free shit for non Whites.
Slush Fund
That sounds brilliant!
I’ll crank that out this afternoon and email it to bootygig@trans.gov
Biden’s Billions: Top 45 Spending Items in Joe Biden’s $2.5 Trillion ‘Infrastructure’ Bill.
April first...Happy ‘Joe Biden’ Day!
Some of those sound like good ideas, though a TON will be wasted in the process
At least it’s being spend here instead of starting new wars blowing up foreign countries, if there’s any consolation
Corporate lobbyists are absolutely euphoric right now.
Democrats on the appropriation committees are going to see kickbacks and bribes the likes of which have never been seen before.
A lot of that just sounds misleading & deceptive; many ways towards a bigger slush fund. Probably best to pass none of it until it is expressly designed to indicate EXACTLY what the money is for. We need Mr. Trump back in charge.
“Follow the money”
See California’s ‘High Speed rail’ ..................
My Infrastructure Bill: Eliminate 80% of federal government. Let people keep their money.
Yeah do so.
I am working on a grant proposal to treat pool water with uric acid.
