Holy Crap. I have accomplished more in my job as a COCOM engineer getting construction funding reprogrammed and approved then these clowns have accomplished.

What a sad state of affairs.

Also we have to tell these clowns in many cases what the law actually is.

H.R. 1681 – American National Red Cross Governance Modernization Act

S. 494 – NATO Freedom Consolidation Act

Anybody know what these are? The Red Cross is entirely a volunteer organization that functions from donations, with few paid positions. Why are they trying to get government involved?

And what about the NATO Freedom Consolidation Act?

The Red Cross is fully reimbursed for all expenses by the Federal Government when reacting to a declared disaster or military support.

They have MANY paid positions, that’s where almost all the “donations” go to. Some of the regional “Boards of Directors” and Regional Managers make from $250K to over $300K plus benefits and expenses including autos...

The Red Cross went from Charity to Scam quite a while back...

I wondered the same thing when I read somewhere that the EEOC was suing the Salvation Army for making their workers learn English.
The SA gave new hires one year to become proficient in English. If they didn't they would be fired. So, one of the fired ones went to the EEOC.
