White House Boasts About Weatherizing 200k Homes — WHAT?!
At an event today with homeowners who benefited from the program, Vice President Biden announced “a major Recovery Act milestone: the weatherizing of 200,000 homes under the Recovery Act.” Instead of slashing taxes to ensure economic growth and create jobs in every sector, the Obama Administration remains committed to justifying the $787 billion stimulus bill it signed last year. The Administration proudly noted that “Thanks to the Recovery Act, thousands of construction workers across the country are now on the job making energy-saving home improvements that will save working families hundreds of dollars a year on their utility bills.” When has some caulk and Styrofoam saved anyone “hundreds of dollars a year” on utility bills? …WHAT?!

I suppose if we all lived in 19th-century log cabins, and were trying to heat and air condition them.
Maybe… just maybe, $2,000 of insulation work might be recouped in a couple years of utility bills.
Maybe…
BTW, is this the Left’s idea of what it means to “create a more perfect union”…? Equal Insulation for All !
