Obama To Give Up On America, Focus On Five Small 'Promise Zones' Instead
Get ready for Obama’s next scheme of Hope, America! The administration of his excellence, the supreme Barack has decreed that the full focus of the federal government shall fall on… five small regions.
They shall henceforth be known as the “Promise Zones†– the only places in America where Obama’s promises are still good. Here they are, in all their glory.
The rest of us are safe from the long arm of Big Government. Actually, that’s not the case, but these five will have Obama’s unmitigated paternalistic guidance – because Philadelphia and Los Angeles haven’t already been destroyed enough by liberal policies.
The Promise Zone initiative, put forth in Obama’s 2013 State of the Union speech, aims to partner local businesses with the community “to create jobs, increase economic security, expand access to educational opportunities and quality, affordable housing and improve public safety,†the statement said.
The zones will combine several other revitalization efforts such as the Obama administration’s Promise Neighborhoods and Choice Neighborhoods that fund local programs aimed at education, housing and other areas.

"It's altogether fitting that President Obama is today talking about income inequality because income inequality has increased dramatically as a direct result of his economic policies. Out-of-control government spending, debt, taxes, and regulations have killed millions of jobs. Unfortunately, rather than stop Washington's job-killing policies, President Obama proposes yet more government spending and debt. People need jobs. All of America needs to be a real 'Promise Zone'--with reduced barriers to small businesses creating private-sector jobs--and we should start by repealing every word of Obamacare, building the Keystone pipeline, abolishing the IRS, and rolling back abusive regulations.”

Interesting that San Antonio (fastest growing city in TX) is one of the zones. Nothing political about this new program.

Large Mexican population...slightly less less liberal than Houston or Austin. No surprise. Like you said it's political with that pick he's trolling the illegals vote.

Just what exactly is the 0 going to DO to San Antonio? It can't possibly be good for the city.

It's like taking up bonsai when you've failed horribly at forest management.
::)
Monetary easing has been the biggest single factor in the growth of income inequality, because all that free money completely bypassed the middle class and working class it was supposedly going to benefit.

He's been so humiliated lately that he's all but given up.

What a bunch of bullshit. Setting himself up for another huge fail. How does a bunch of braindead federal meddling accomplish any of this?
