"To Dari Anders, who has done so much for us. God Bless Him"

With over 40% of my wage going to taxes, I think I deserve this as a token of their appreciation.

According to this article only 31 billion dollars of the proposed 2003 budget would go to HUD out of $2.13 trillion total, or about 1.5% of the total budget. You're not giving as much money to the poor as you think you are.

HUD


Bush's $31.4 billion budget for the Department of Housing and Urban Development proposes a $2 billion rise in budget authority. It includes $204 million for 34,000 new housing vouchers to subsidize rental housing for the poor and adds $238 million to the HOME investment partnerships program for housing rehabilitation and to encourage home ownership among low- and moderate-income households.

HUD proposes cutting the public housing capital fund by $438 million, while boosting the operating subsidy by $40 million. It wants to cut the community development grant program by $336 million, the amount earmarked this fiscal year for special purpose projects. HUD officials propose cutting the $25 million rural housing program, saying it should be merged with the Agriculture Department's program even though that agency has proposed a slight decrease in rural housing services.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm quite sure that your statue will be going somewhere near the pentagon.............
