FOX News is upset that some of the stimulus money is going to such programs like College Alcohol Prevention, Parenting Classes, Exercising, Anti-Smoking, and several others that help better our society. They ask the question, "Why Are We Funding This?". We here at Goleft TV decided to give you a few reasons of "WHY".

1. Well because you didn't see to many of the wealthy elite in any of those clips, so it's a waste of
money to fund any of those things.

2. Please add NSFW to the video title. Thanks.
There is drug use displayed in this video. It needs a warning. I thought it was simply going to be a Fox News clip and I was watching this in the office.

4. All worthy programs but what do they have to do with
stimulus. I was under the impression that the stimulus program was to help the unemployed and fund infrastructure programs to put people to work. I have to agree with Faux in this case. That kind of stuff has no business in the program. A few hundred thousand here and a couple million there adds up adds up to real money eventually.

5. Well I have to agree with Faux
Lets see:
$648,000 that could replace one of many bad bridges.
$592,000 that could pave a street.
$371,000 that could maybe fix a hill prone to mud or rockslidse.
$239,000 we could have used that to fix up a city playgrond.
$457,000 that could have kept our Sheriff from laying off his Deputees.
$268,000 that may have kept 5 or 6 teachers on the job.
$677,000 that could have been used to replace our 100 year old wooden water lines that break every other day.

I would call that stimulus.
