Barney Frank just can't keep his grubby paws off of your money:
Barney Frank: Let's spend TARP profits before taxpayers can get them
When President Obama announced on June 9 that some financial institutions would be allowed to repay Troubled Asset Relief Program dollars, he said the massively expensive TARP bailout had made money for the federal government. "It is worth noting that in the first round of repayments from these [TARP recipients], the government has actually turned a profit," the president said. Indeed, TARP supporters have long held out the hope that the program might be profitable.
But now Rep. Barney Frank, the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, has come up with a proposal to spend any TARP profits before they can be returned to the taxpayers. Last Friday, Frank introduced the "TARP for Main Street Act of 2009," a bill that would take profits from the program and immediately redirect them toward housing proposals favored by Frank and some fellow Democrats.
You know what? We should make the morons that elected this clown flip the bill.
There are no words; I've literally run out of things to say when I read things like this. It doesn't do me any good to get angry because that's almost a constant state for me now with the government the way it is. Barney Frank needs to go away.
Is there any loophole that allows us to send Frank and all the other commie bastards to Venezuela or any other commie country? I mean if they like it so much then just get the f#ck out and leave us alone. Nice to know our money is going to bullshit like this.
You know what , on second thought id rather not send them to other countries that would make it way worse for their own citizens. the last thing they need is more of them.
