Pass a Progressive Budget for 2010

President Obamas budget proposal for 2010 was recently released to Congress. The budget is an economic blueprint for America, and provides the opportunity to lay a strong foundation for rebuilding our future from the bottom up.

Specifically, Obamas budget proposal will create clean energy investments and green jobs under a cap and trade policy, reform the financial aid system to make college affordable and accessible, and provide quality healthcare now. The House of Representatives and Senate are going to begin working on a budget resolution and move it through Congress in the coming weeks.

There are lots of lies and secrecy lingering in some, if not all, arms of US govt. Unless facts are uncensored, classified incidence/documents are declassified, and the military industrial complex not just in the US, but in other countries are capped, sorry, every unsuspecting woman and man, young and elderly of our world is in for a hot cake in a red hot pan.

"progressive" = code word for communism

If this dimwit represents the 'powerful, young generation', we're in deep, deep shit.

Naive young people like this scare me. What's with the star on the banner? Must every fucking 'progressive' cause flirt with communism?

kids dont mind spending money because they are not used to paying it back....5-10 years later, when the real world hits her in the face and she finally realizes she's not making enough to support herself in her non-profit job, she'll see what it's like on the reality side of the street... maybe then, she'll see that you cannot just go spend money unless you have a plan to pay it back.... because nationalizing everything will just fill in the grave, place the headstone, and plant the flowers

wow is she nieve!!

[KarlNobama]

there's a reason congress doesnt listen to kids. lol... or atleast in the past... now they listen to the woes and wants of every beggar in the u.s. and now look where the ended up.. massive debt. if everybody was taught to be responsible for themselves, we wouldnt have the problems of today and trillions in debt.

this is the most "progressive" president in history... we need a fiscally conservative budget.. bush was a progressive too....

[toliverfive]

Obama is making the big-spending Bush look like a penny pincher. Obama is roughly tripling the the worst of the Bush deficit spending. It's a recipe for long-term economic suicide.

Obama's budget is anti-young people...the budget deficit this year is going to be 1.2 trillion...or 3 times Bush's worst budget (which were bad).

No change, just more Washington political lies.
