Free Press, Google and Others Form Pro-Broadband Initiative

NEW YORK, June 24 – A group of non-profits, businesses and other organizations seeking to guide the creation of a national broadband plan on Tuesday announced the formation of a new initiative, “Internet for Everyone,” seeking to highlight the crucial importance of broadband.

Here's where Google fits in to Obama's agenda. Apparently the FCC's Broadband initiative funding was incorporated into the Stimulus bill. I have been wondering why Google has been so eager to jump onto the Obama policy bandwagon, since they are actually a healthy and innovative company.

On Cue: Administration Announces Massive Energy Tax Credits Program - The Atlantic Politics Channel Both from a literal and public-confidence standpoint, the administration has used stimulus announcements to combat a bad economy this year: the economy lags, new data comes out to show it, and the administration announces a new program to help fix it, combating both the job losses and the image--doing something about it, and showing that they're doing something about it.So, after the December unemployment figures were released Friday morning by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, President Obama took to the podium in the White House's East Room to announce $2.3 billion in clean energy manufacturing tax credits being given out on a competitive bases by the Department of Energy, which is now done sorting through the bids and approving them, along with the IRS. via politics.theatlantic.com The Obama administration sure likes to put the cart before the horse. If you don't believe me, read the stimulus bill. Creating funding or incentives for green jobs, cap and trade, cash for clunkers and healthcare before the legislation is passed. The EPA announcing its finding that CO2 is a pollutant, and can be regulated by their agency. Deals have been cut behind closed doors with the Administration's pet special interests (SEIU, AARP, ACORN, GREEN FOR ALL) big businesses (GOOGLE, GE, GM), Banks, and Big Pharma. To them, it's not "if" the bills pass, it is "when"

Wake Up, America The December jobs report shouldn’t really come as a big surprise to anybody. We may be stuck in this range for some time. While the economy is done with its spate of disgorging half a million or so workers a month, it is nowhere near a state where it’s adding workers at any appreciable rate. via markettalk.newswires-americas.com
