Stimulus Money Going to Overseas Companies

[JenaS62]

This should piss off each and every American - your tax dollars helping to fund jobs in other countries - that's right - other countries. It has surely pissed off congress. Yet another Obama debacle at our expense.

"An investigation by ABC News and the Investigative Reporting Workshop found that 79 percent of the program's money has gone to foreign companies, money that Schumer said was "federal tax dollars, the stimulus, which was sold as jobs in America."

The senators are especially alarmed about a project highlighted by ABC News in West Texas that uses turbines manufactured in China. The Texas wind farm is eligible for up to $450 million in stimulus funds. "

Unbee leev uhbull... The important thing is that the reason for the stimulus will never happen again, despite Fannie & Freddie's unethical greed playing-forward in perpetuity... F & F's unrealistic mortgages bundled-together, which were sold overseas as 'stocks', which were then used overseas as collateral for loans. That event-chain won't happen again. -So I knew that X-amount of simulus-cash was headed 'offshore' as an equivalent to one spouse's bouquet-of-roses and apology-note to the other spouse, to make-up for a breakfast-quarrel 'r whatever.

What sucks is porkulus-cash going to Left-wing, America-scolding pigs like George Soros and his (Soros Fund Management, LLC) stake in Petrobras Oil...
