New Immigration Bill Has Taxpayer Subsidized ObamaCars for Youths - ALIPAC:
"Breitbart News has learned there is a provision included in the immigration bill that could be used to give free cars, motorcycles, scooters or other vehicles to young people around the country over a period of 15 months after the bill passes.
The new provision is a result of the latest addition to the Corker-Hoeven amendment, which is essentially an entirely new version of the bill."

Why Is Congress Rushing To Pass A Bad Immigration Bill?
Why Is Congress Rushing To Pass A Bad Immigration Bill? - Investors.com
Among other things, the bill:
• Adds $1.5 billion to President Obama's failed jobs stimulus, a gift to socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont.
• Turns the Travel Promotion Act, which was supposed to end in 2015, into a permanent program at a cost of hundreds of millions of dollars. Prime beneficiaries? Las Vegas casino interests, a gift to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada.
• Makes a range of serious crimes for which U.S. citizens can be arrested and imprisoned — including assault and battery, drunk driving and tax fraud — "waivable" for illegal immigrants when it comes to their amnesty status.
• Gives Alaskan "Seafood processing" jobs special status as "shortage occupations," letting those industries hire low-skilled illegal immigrants to fill "temporary" jobs, a bipartisan favor to Alaska Sens. Mark Begich (Democrat) and Lisa Murkowski (Republican).
That, no doubt, isn't a comprehensive list. But since no one has read the bill — the latest version of immigration reform was issued less than 75 hours before Monday's vote — it's impossible even to say how much pork is in the bill the Senate is voting on.

Get Shafted America!
The American Spectator : Get Shafted America!
New propaganda campaign exposes a central lie behind the push for Obamacare.
Late last week, while perusing the press releases that flooded my inbox announcing a nationwide public relations effort called “Get Covered America,” I was reminded of a Woody Allen gag: “There are worse things than death. Have you ever spent an evening with an insurance salesman?” With gleeful subject lines like, “New Video Introduces ‘Get Covered America’ Campaign,” the emails suggestthat many Americans are about to experience the grim fate that Allen described. They will be relentlessly hectored until they contact an Obamacare exchange to learn about insurance — and other opportunities.
Get Covered America is the long-anticipated propaganda campaign launched by Enroll America, a “nonpartisan” organization whose ostensible mission is to help the uninsured navigate the exchanges. In reality, Enroll America is an Obama administration front group funded with money extorted from the insurance industry. The story is by now familiar. Congress declined to fund an advertising campaign for Obamacare, so HHS Commissar Sebelius initiated“stakeholder conversations about the… health care law.” In other words, she contacted the insurers she regulates and suggested that the exchanges would be pay-to-play operations.
Thus, Enroll America is typical of the day-to-day skullduggery that defines the Obama regime. It’s not exactly shocking to find that Sebelius or any of her accomplices in this most corrupt of presidential administrations has behaved unethically.

"....“no matter how large the welfare state, liberal politicians and writers have accused it of being shamefully small” and “contemptibly austere.”
Barbara Ehrenreich expressed the same attitude in her book, Nickled and Dimed: “guilt doesn’t go anywhere near far enough; the appropriate emotion is shame” regarding the stingy miserliness of America’s welfare state.
Once such a decision is made, habits are formed, and many continue to vote reflexively Democrat, regardless of facts on the ground. "

Milton Friedman on the difference between being: a) pro-free enterprise and b) being pro-business
Milton Friedman on the difference between being: a) pro-free enterprise and b) being pro-business | AEIdeas:
"You must separate out being “pro free-enterprise” from being “pro-business.”
The two greatest enemies of the free enterprise system in my opinion have been on one hand my fellow intellectuals, and on the other hand, the big businessmen – for opposite reasons.
Almost every businessman is in favor of free enterprise for everybody else, but special privilege and special government protection for himself.
As a result, they have been a major force in undermining the free enterprise system.
Stop kidding yourself into thinking you can use the business community as a way to promote free enterprise.
Unfortunately, most of them are not our friends in that respect."
