Republican congressman plan for the homeless
Posted: Mar 6, 2015
Alaska Dispatch News Don Young suggests introducing wolves as solution to homelessness Becky Bohrer|Associated Press March 5, 2015 JUNEAU -- U.S. Rep. Don Young lashed out at congressional members who urged continued protections for the gray wolf in parts of the Lower 48, saying none is from a district affected by wolves. He said during a hearing in Washington, D.C., that he would like to introduce wolves in their districts: "I'd introduce 'em in your district, you wouldn't have a homeless problem anymore.;
Certainly an insight into his character - big picture
[ In Reply To ..]That is a very ugly statement he made and it tells you a lot about him.
Wildlife issues are local issues, but they do not know state lines. Our area currently has an overpopulation of wolves due to the weather circumstances of the last couple of years. However, the wolves in our area, also live across the state border and apparently the wolves do not recognize the boundary lines. Also, I do not approve of the hunting methods of the neighboring state using cruel trapping (and that also endangers lives of domestic pets).
Just like with fluctuating deer and fish populations, there needs to be regulations that can be applied intelligently and humanely.
Homeless population - sm
[ In Reply To ..]has grown by leaps and bounds thanks to BO and his failed policies. His dependency population is growing just as he wants.
Yet 60 months of job growth - who wants?
[ In Reply To ..]I guess President Obama is not very successful if that is what he wants.
295,000 more nonfarm jobs last month, topping consensus forecasts of 235,000, the U.S. Labor Department said Friday. The nation's unemployment rate fell to 5.5 percent, from 5.7 percent.
Now, is something could be done about those stagnant PRIVATE company wages, things would be looking good. Companies showing record profits but not passing on to the workers. However, if job growth continues, employers will be forced to raise wages, as many companies have in the last few months.
Dependency population? Is that why he raised minimum wage for federal employees?
That job growth is mostly government jobs. - Only read your headline.
[ In Reply To ..]LOL
Incorrect Information -- Honestly: Why not post the truth? - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I guess the truth doesn't match the conservative narrative?
FACT: Government employment showed little change over the last month.
Where were the job gains?
59,000 -- food services and drinking places
51,000 -- professional and business services
32,000 -- retail trade
29,000 -- construction
27,000 -- specialty trade contractors, mostly in the residential component
24,000 -- health care
19,000 -- warehousing
There were losses in mining (-7,000), and [quoting from the report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics--see link below] "employment in other major industries, including wholesale trade, information,
financial activities, and government, showed little change over the month."
Why not post the truth when facts are so easily verifiable?
Perhaps people are being told information that is not true and are believing it? Such is the world we live in where the so-called "news" is nothing more than spoon feeding of propaganda, political rhetoric, and blatant misinformation!
