If they can ask, why can't we?

I think Jpp.com really should have a "bailout", I'll only ask for 2 Million per member... It'll sound cheap!

At first glance, the town of Edwardsville, Ala., with a population of 194 people, might raise a few eyebrows with its bid to receive $375 million from the economic stimulus package being assembled by Barack Obama and lawmakers in Congress.

The tiny town, located near the Georgia border and 26 miles from the nearest "big city" of Anniston (population: 24,276), added 33 proposals—about two thirds of them related to "green" energy—to the list of "ready- to- go" projects assembled by the U.S. Conference of Mayors. Total sum: $375,076,200.

That comes out to nearly $2 million per Edwardsville resident, although E. D. Phillips, the town's representative to the U.S. Conference of Mayors, says the projects would affect a wider region that comprises about 80,000 people. That number includes residents of nearby rural areas that aren't already incorporated into towns, along with the residents of Talladega Springs (population: 124), which partnered with Edwardsville and local municipal utilities on the projects.

The last thing we need is for people to be using stimulus packages to build a bunch of friggin museums. The museums can wait until better times... especially the 'mob museum' in Vegas. What a crock.
 
Hey Damo,

If you succeed in getting your $2 million per member, I think it only fair that you "share the wealth" with those of us who put you here. I think $500k each only fair.

The Mormon church is like the mob. Mormons from all over send their money back to HQ in Utah. They convert more mormons to send money back to home base and then they spend a lot of it in their state helping other mormons do things like buy big homes. Then those homes have to be built by other mormons, who hire other mormons to log and process the timber, and so on.

I'm not even sure what metric she's using to determine their economy is the "best." California can take the day off and gross more then Utah on their best day (and I'm only exaggerating a little). Maybe she means "failing least quickly" and that's because they don't have far to go to reach bottom.
 
ha ha well the mormons do own a lot of banks and coca cola shares...:)...the mormon mafia is in vegas:eek:
 
Most of you know what it means when a hundred corpses are lying side by side, or five hundred, or a thousand. To have stuck it out, and at the same time — apart from exceptions caused by human weakness — to have remained decent fellows, that is what has made us hard.
 
What we really need to revitalize the economy is the reinstitution of slave labor and debtors prisons, so other countries will buy our debt, knowing that in the end the state will turn the people over as slaves to the debt owning nations.
