Are illegal immigrants eligible for the $2000 debit card as they are eligible for free medical care, free education, and jobs in our present day system? Will this program encourage illegal immigrants to flock to the hurricane area in order to apply for the $2000 debit cards since $2000 in Mexico is equivalent to a years salary.
Additional Questions:???
How will Bush's Bankruptcy Reform Bill affect small business owner's who will be applying for Bankruptcy? The intention of the bill is to make it harder to apply and harder to be eligible for bankruptcy protection. Will this bill increase financial hardship and desperation of people who have lost their businesses and people who might have astronomical medical bills? Has this new bill created a multibillion dollar profit windfall for the financial services sector including credit card companies, collection agencies and other companies that prey upon the desperate.
What should I now do with all the duct tape I have stockpiled as well as my gas mask and my airtight anti-germ warfare, biological jump suit? Should I keep my anti-atomic bomb radiation eye glasses or sell them on e-bay? Is the terror alert level still at yellow? What comes after yellow again?---I forget. Do you think I will ever get my nail clippers back that the security guard took from me at the airport?
Why does President Bush keep asking for "cash money"? Did he run short of the $2.7 trillion that we gave him in taxes last year? President Bush said we "have the resources to fight in Iraq" ($300 billion so far and $2 billion a week). Katrina is estimated to cost $100 billion. When will the resources run out? Should we have another $350 billion tax cut for the wealthy and make it permanent like he wants to?
How come New Orleans is always referred to by President Bush as "that part of the world"? Also, I never knew that New Orleans was 100% African American. Was there a "rap music concert" at the Superdome? Is that why only blacks showed up there? Where did all the White people go?
Just some questions.
