Stimulus Had To Be Passed And Never Read Or Thought Through

Remember when, Liberal Barack Hussein Obama had to have his stimulus package passed immediately?  No one was given a chance to read the 700 plus pages of what was in the stimulus bill.  Some people on unemployment are finding out the hard way that it has cost them food stamps while they are out of work.

Liberal Obama is a community organizer and has again shown his lack of experience coupled with his thirst for power and control of every American.  Obama and his teleprompter were telling America the stimulus package had to be passed right then, it was an emergency, it was or else.  There was no time for our Congressmen to read it.

We now find out that in the rush to pass this non stimulus package it wasn't written well either.  Many hardworking Americans who lost their jobs and are drawing unemployment are now losing food stamps. 

Liberal Obama had to have the stimulus package passed right then or we were told if there was  hesitation America would suffer.  It was passed because of the panic spread but then it did not get signed for four days because he had to set up the proper three ring circus to sign it in. Television coverage of course.

You see under the stimulus plan, laid-off workers have seen a $25 weekly bump in their unemployment checks as part of a broad expansion of benefits for the poor. But the law did not raise the income cap for food stamp eligibility, so the extra money has pushed some people over the limit.

"Everybody tells you, 'Yeah, I can understand why you're frustrated.  It doesn't sound right.' But nobody knows where to go," said Mark Milota, 47, of Marietta, Ga., who was laid off in November from his job at a medical billing company.

The Georgia Department of Human Resources explained in a letter to him last month that, because of the stimulus, he was ineligible for food stamps. He now makes $1,538 a month — $21 too much for a family of two to qualify.

"We have to pay him that $25 a week," said Brenda Brown, assistant commissioner at the Georgia Department of Labor. "And he doesn't have the option not to accept it." Milota said he was told that, without the stimulus money, he would have received about $300 a month in food stamps.

Lawmakers crafting the stimulus knew this would become a problem, said Stacy Dean, director of food assistance policy at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a liberal think tank. They could have headed it off by raising the income tax or declaring that the $25 stimulus checks would not affect food stamp eligibility. Both were expensive options that could have forced states to reprogram their computer systems.

There might have been the necessity for some reprogramming of computer systems, but more importantly that would've taken time and liberal Obama wanted to push his stimulus package down America's throat.

Liberal Obama doesn't care America if your hurt and suffering in these tough economic times.  Obama cares about the power and control he gains over America.
