Re: Obamanation here today
George W. Bush made an impressive commitment to the international fight against AIDS when he formed the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief program. Thanks to these efforts — and similar initiatives, like those spearheaded by the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria — the number of African patients with access to AIDS drugs jumped tenfold from 2003 to 2008. Since 2004, the AIDS-related mortality rate in sub-Saharan Africa has dropped 18 percent.
Yet President Obama added only $366 million to the program this year — well below the $1 billion per year he promised to add when he was on the campaign trail.
Under the Bush administration, about 400,000 more African patients received treatment every year. President Obama’s strategy would reduce the number of new patients receiving treatment to 320,000 — resulting in 1.2 million avoidable deaths over the next five years, according to calculations by two Harvard researchers, Rochelle Walensky and Daniel Kuritzkes.

Hey Dipstick, if you really want to cut government waste, spending millions to form committees is not the way to do it. Just STOP spending!! He hasn't a clue.

White House Backs Bill to Collect Employee Pay Information from Businesses
(CNSNews.com) – The Obama administration is backing legislation that includes regulations requiring U.S. businesses to provide to the government data about employee pay as it relates to the sex, race and national origin of employees.
In an orchestrated effort that included a statement by President Barack Obama and an event at the White House featuring Vice President Joe Biden, Attorney General Eric Holder and Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, the president and his cabinet endorsed the Paycheck Fairness Act.
James Sherk, Bradley Fellow in Labor Policy in the Center for Data Analysis at conservative The Heritage Foundation, said that the law would be a boon to trial lawyers seeking damages from employers for their clients and would allow the courts to “micro-manage” American businesses.

Re: Obamanomics
NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- A Minnesota bank was closed by government regulators Friday, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. said, bringing the total number of failed banks this year past 100.
Community Security Bank of New Prague, Minn., was the 101st in a string of small, regional banks to fail this year.
FDIC spokesman Andrew Gray said the agency expects the number of failed banks to exceed last year's total of 140, though he added that failures this year will not approach the historic levels seen during the savings and loan crisis. In 1989, a record 534 banks were closed by regulators.
Still, banks have been failing at a rapid pace this year. At this time in 2009, regulators had closed a total of 57 banks.

Britain Plans to Decentralize National Health Care
To shift control of England’s $160 billion annual health budget from a centralized bureaucracy to doctors at the local level.
Under the plan, $100 billion to $125 billion a year would be meted out to general practitioners, who would use the money to buy services from hospitals and other health care providers.
The plan would also shrink the bureaucratic apparatus, in keeping with the government’s goal to effect $30 billion in “efficiency savings” in the health budget by 2014 and to reduce administrative costs by 45 percent.
Tens of thousands of jobs would be lost because layers of bureaucracy would be abolished.

Re: Obamanomics
California's 12.3% unemployment rate was the third highest in the country in June, edged out only by Nevada at 14.1% and Michigan at 13.2% as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
That's shameful !!
Altogether 15 states had double digit unemployment last month.
Thanks, Barry!
