Both the House and Senate budget plan would cut Social Security and Medicare,
while cutting taxes on the wealthy.

Kucinich noted that none of the government programs targeted for
elimination or severe cutback in House Republican spending plans
"appeared on the GAO's list of government programs at high risk of
waste, fraud and abuse."

[W]e have the situation with the deficit and the debt and spending and jobs. And
itıs not that difficult to get out of it. The first thing you do is you get rid
of corporate welfare. Thatıs hundreds of billions of dollars a year. The second
is you tax corporations so that they donıt get away with no taxation.

Good.  Wife lived on Hough Avenue in Cleveland when she was a child and
later it became a slum after they moved.  Nice to see things are improving.

Good to see-- but you don't need to take the buildings out-
http://www.glenwoodnyc.com/manhattan-living/nyc-rooftop-gardens-and-urban/

This one was featured on a news show a month or so ago--
http://rooftopfarms.org/

3 stories up in Brooklyn- a great view of Manhattan & 6000 square feet
of garden.    And its a CSA to boot with a bunch of local eateries
buying their wares.

They grow "cucumbers, hot peppers, tomatoes, eggplants, spinach,
radishes, kale, swiss chard, carrots, peas, beans, salad greens
(lettuces, mustards, arugula) herbs (sage, tarragon, oregano, parsley,
chives, cilantro, dill), and flowers (cosmos, zinnias, calendula,
tobacco, daisys, hops). Additionally, the Farm grows a small amount of
corn and squash (winter and summer)."
[and honey-- don't forget the honey<g>]
