    Immediate Action Required! Oppose the $825 Billion Stimulus



    Immediate Action Required! Oppose the $825 Billion Stimulus Package!

    Take Action Now!

    This afternoon the House began debate on the Democratic-drafted $825 billion economic stimulus package (H.R. 1) http://capwiz.com/jbs/utr/1/EABZJRFZEC/ ... 2839265236 with a vote expected on Wednesday, January 28.

    All Americans who are concerned over the fiscal irresponsibility of Congress and the inflationary effects of its trillion dollar deficits, trillion dollar bailouts, and trillion dollar stimulus package, must contact their representative immediately in opposition to H.R. 1, the economic stimulus package.

    Rep. Ron Paul issued a statement yesterday regarding this bill which makes it clear what type of bill it is and some of the reasons why we must oppose it. Here are some highlights:

    "In reality, this bill is just an escalation of a government-created economic mess. As before, a sense of urgency and impending doom is being used to extract mountains of money from Congress with minimal debate..... We are again being promised that its passage will help employment, help homeowners, help the environment, etc. These promises are worthless. This time around especially, Congress should know better than to pass anything of this magnitude without first reading the fine print."

    "At least $4 billion is allocated to expanding the police state and the war on drugs ... and the COPS program, both of which are corrupt and largely ineffective programs."

    "To help Big Brother keep a better eye on us and our children, $20 billion would go towards health information technology, which would create a national system of electronic medical records without adequate privacy protection." [Click here to read a warning about this RFID-related threat to privacy in The New American magazine in 2005.] http://capwiz.com/jbs/utr/1/EABZJRFZEC/ ... 2839265236

    "$79 billion bails out states that haphazardly expanded their budgets during the bubble years, but refuse to retrench and cut back, as their taxpayers have had to, during recession years."

    "$200 million expands Americorps. $100 million goes to “faith-and-communityâ€

    Washington, Wall Street and the Mortgage Bankers are the root cause of this economic problem. Now the government wants to pile up another trillin dollars of debt and force us and our descends to pay the interest on it forever. Does any of that make any sense? No.
