As always we get stuck with the bill.
Via Washington Examiner:
President Obama’s 43-point State of the Union speech and second term agenda laid out to Congress on Tuesday will cost taxpayers nearly $40 billion more annually if fully implemented with over half — $20.2 billion — just to reform immigration, according to the National Taxpayers Union Foundation.
The foundation, which annually tabulates the cost of programs presidents propose in their speeches, set this year’s annualized price at $39.995 billion. The bulk would pay for the immigration and amnesty, followed by $12.8 billion to restore unemployment insurance and $3.5 billion to fund a pre-K request.
When totalled, the president’s wish list will cost over $350 per household.
Other highlights from the study provided to Secrets include: An estimated $547 million annually for his community college plan; $414 million annually to expand the Earned Income Tax Credit; and $274 million annually putting people to work building fueling stations.
