Feds gave low-income housing to millionaires

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) gave low-income housing to millionaires, according to a recent audit.

The Office of Inspector General (OIG) found over 25,000 families who earned too much to qualify for subsidized apartments, which will cost taxpayers $104.4 million this year.
“Public housing authorities provided public housing assistance to as many as 25,226 families whose annual household income exceeded HUD’s 2014 program eligibility income limits,” according to the audit. “Most of these families had earned more than the qualifying amount for more than 1 year, were not participating in programs that would allow them to reside in public housing, and occupied units while many families were waiting for public housing assistance.” READ MORE

What If All The Oil Ran Out? - Documentary

Since an oil shortage is not the only possible reason for a long term power outage institutions need to develop low and no power operational protocols.  Obviously,  back up power should be used differently,  depending upon how long the term of a power outage is expected to be.  A hospital,  for example,  shouldn't plan to run it's backup generators,  to provide full service,  when the outage is expected to exceed the ability to sustain power.  Instead you want to identify what power can be cut and/or provided,  for how long to each of several zones of operations  Use of mirrors to utilize sunlight to illuminate low power operating zones,  or concentrate it for sterilization functions.  Thereby conserving power for the hospitals most critical operations,  like keeping the billing dept.  computers running (joke).

Recent Court News

QUOTE A lawsuit against members of the Bush administration for their role in the invasion of Iraq recently received noteworthy support from an internationally prominent group of lawyers—including a former U.S. attorney general. The group is asking the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals to review the class action suit on grounds that the U.S.-led war was an illegal act of aggression in violation of international guidelines as defined by the Nuremberg Tribunal after World War II.

Iraqi mother Sundus Saleh filed the lawsuit on May 27 against former President George W. Bush, former Vice President Richard Cheney, former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, former National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice, former Secretary of State Colin Powell, and former Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz, stating they “broke the law in conspiring and committing the crime of aggression against the people of Iraq.” Her complaint filed to the court reads:

Defendants planned the war against Iraq as early as 1998; manipulated the United States public to support the war by scaring them with images of ‘mushroom clouds’ and conflating the Hussein regime with al-Qaeda; and broke international law by commencing the invasion without proper legal authorization. More than sixty years ago, American prosecutors in Nuremberg, Germany convicted Nazi leaders of the crimes of conspiring and waging wars of aggression. They found the Nazis guilty of planning and waging wars that had no basis in law and which killed millions of innocents.[emphasis added]

It should be noted as well that the Nuremberg Tribunal’s findings were specifically quoted in the suit, which has been undertaken as a pro bonocase by Comar Law, based in San Francisco:

Cops Show ‘True Colors’ at Marijuana Dispensary Bust

dispensary
*You may have heard the saying, “Eventually, your true colors will show themselves.” Well, I just made that up, but you get the point. And recent video show a group of cops who raided a marijuana dispensary in Santa Ana, California as a perfect example.

 What idiots!

These poor excuses for police officers were obviously not aware that the dispensary they charged into had secret cameras. And obviously smelling themselves they proceeded to flaunt their authority by showing a complete lack of disregard for the business; eating marijuana edibles, tossing darts, and even joking about their behavior towards a disabled person.   READ MORE
