Bringing Healthy, Affordable Food to Underserved Communities | The White House

Bringing Healthy, Affordable Food to Underserved Communities | The White House : "- Sent using Google Toolbar" Kudos, First Lady! I wish that somehow, qualified individuals from the food desert communities could be pulled to start these farmer's markets and fresh food oasis. Long-established black churches can offer recommendations from their trustee boards for youngish people to have stores where they live and raise families above the stores, if necessary or become off-site owners. That way, new wealth could be created in the communities they serve and those dollars can circulate in the community. Those loans can be SBA/government-backed for a short period until profitability could be established. Local food suppliers, churches and the community would profit.

smaller-raises-for-seniors-smartmoney: Personal Finance News from Yahoo! Finance : "Of course, lower benefits are part of the point. Using the slower-rising index is being billed by many including President Barack Obama's fiscal responsibility commission and the Bipartisan Policy Center -- as a way to generate much-needed savings to help deal with the country's mounting debt crisis.

United States gubernatorial elections, 2012 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia : "- Sent using Google Toolbar" Mike Pence is no friend to Northwest Indiana. Do not let him win governorship of this state. Jim Wallace won't campaign past Indianapolis--Northwest Indiana Republicans. Let this be a note to the wise. Northwest Indiana had better support a man who supports Lake County. Our vote is valuable, we don't have to give it away to just anyone. AS FOUND ON WIKIPEDIA so grain-of-salt it. Main article: Indiana gubernatorial election, 2012 Governor Mitch Daniels will be term-limited in 2012. Mike Pence , a Republican currently serving his sixth term in the U.S. House of Representatives, has announced his candidacy for his party's nomination.

Freshman U.S. senator gives Obama debt-limit fits | Reuters : "- Sent using Google Toolbar" Definition of a Corporate right robber barren. He cares not for the American People but only protects the interests of big business. Big business cannot seem to find a way to hire the American People because they don't care about the American People--they care about huge profits only. Who elected this person to the U.S. Senate? Couldn't have been the American People. That would be like shooting ourselves in the foot.
