HJ,
This is indicative of what I have said before. Not that I support government give aways to taxpayers, but I believe if federal dollars are going to be spent, it is better to give the pork to all taxpayers rather than these kind of give aways to those that have the political connections. As correct as you are about the $300 per month gas give back, IMO that is that isa better way to spend federal dollars than:
—$6.6 million to replace irrigation systems at two golf courses in Colorado Springs.
My golf course put in a new irrigation system last year paid for by its members.
Do golfers in Colorado Springs playing on a pristine course somehow represent a vital American interest or are democrat Senators Bennet and Hickenlooper somehow getting kickbacks(aka campaign contributions) from the course or its lobbyists?

We can't afford any of it. We are in serious debt.

We agree we cannot afford it. But at least direct payments to taxpayers are seen and known by everyone. Far more money goes to these bogus projects. It is the people's money. Why should a roofer in Opa Locka pay for irrigation of a golf couse in Colorado, I'm sure he would believe he is a better served having that money go into the gas tank of his truck.

 

[HJCane]

Now we have faux outrage by Congress representatives like Senator Warren but Congress and the White House gave money with NO STRINGS ATTACHED. Well the left Congress anyway because ZERO Republicans voted yes.

Would love to see something like this become law.

Here's my plan to hold Congress' big spenders accountable - and get transparency for American taxpayers

Sen. Rand Paul says he has a plan that would give lawmakers ample time to read the bills before they vote and increase transparency and incentivize legislation to be shorter.
