President Obama’s proposed 2012 budget will cut several billion dollars from the government’s energy assistance fund for poor people, officials briefed on the subject told National Journal.

It's the biggest domestic spending cut disclosed so far, and one that will likely generate the most heat from the president's traditional political allies. Such complaints might satisfy the White House, which has a vested interest in convincing Americans that it is serious about budget discipline.  One White House friend, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), earlier today said a Republican proposal to cut home heating oil counted as an "extreme idea" that would "set the country backwards."  Schumer has not yet reacted to Obama's proposed cut.

Since when of all of hell, is a foreign owned company allowed to own such a crucial part of our infrastructure?
National Grid, is British owned.

If Albany goes down, so does a host of other things, such as the DMV computers, which would completely cripple the cop's ability to raise funds, for your own safety of course.

There are computers in Albany that are a critical part of "Wall Street", and I don't think I even have to mention the global implications that would occur if that whole thing came down.

WHAT THE HELL IS A "DELIVERY FEE"?
Do they now deliver my electricity on trucks?
They don't even maintain the lines any more, because it's cheaper to fix it after it's broken.
After your cellar flooded because the sump pump was dead, and the pipes burst.
One day, they just added it onto the bill, and nobody said anything.
Everyone was too busy railing against welfare moms that wanted an abortion, or whether those two guys that live down the block, and you have no interaction with, want to get married.

By all means, THAT's what's important.

Fox News,(also foreign owned) is not your friend.

Stop worshipping corporations that just consider you as a useful idiot.
Mathematically true, 50% of the population, is of below average intelligence, but they still get to vote, and they probably spend theier days, listening to Rush, Hannity, and Beck.

Those are people that should probbably be wearing a hockey hellmet  to go to the supermarket.

couldn't agree more.....but the National Grid folks are on a 'fixed income' and all demanded by their union and delivered by the contracts
approved by none other than(drum roll please) the government, and it doesn't matter which party is in office or if they are left or right or
from the Beck compound or the Matthews compound......

they just tell the plebs----"here's your sign" and we take it


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
