Oh, and funding for research facilities that will do “cutting edge science.”

-$6 billion to weatherize “modest income homes.”

-$6 billion to provide internet in “underserved” areas

-$6 billion for “higher education modernization.”

-$20 billion in health information technology to “prevent medial mistakes.”

-$20 billion to increase food stamp funding

-$87 billion to provide a “temporary” increase in Medicaid funding

-$300 million to provide rebates for people who purchase Energy Star products

-$600 million for the federal government to buy brand new energy efficient cars

-$400 million for state and local governments to buy brand new energy efficient cars

-$2.4 billion for carbon capture demonstration programs

-$350 million to research using energy efficient technology on military bases

-$300 million for grants and loans to state and local governments for projects that reduce diesel emissions, “benefiting public health and reducing global warming”

-$500 million for energy efficient manufacturing demonstration projects

-$400 million to build major research facilities “that perform cutting edge science”

-$1.5 billion for expanding “good jobs in biomedical research”

Wonderful

Nothing stimulates the economy like government funding, at the expense of working Americans, for layabouts who can’t be bothered to weatherize their own homes
