When folks ask, how might Barack Obamas Economic Reinvestment and Recovery Plan help me and/or the people I know and love...

Sometimes pictures speak louder than a "million" words...

In the photos above, you can see the Weatherization Program at work --- right here in the City of Kingston --- putting insulation in the outside walls of a residence (might your mother, daughter, grandmother, grandfather, grandchildren, ailing neighbor, etc. be in DIRE NEED of such help?) --- where the owners could not afford to do so themselves...

The results (in combination with turning down the thermostat and utilizing other services, tools and ideas as provided by the Weatherization Program and / or EmPower N.Y.):

Lowered heat and/or eclectic costs

Less waste (regarding the overall economy and the stratosphere)

A better shot at being able (during these difficult times) to pay ones taxes, bills, etc...

Which means a better shot (for those in very difficult situations) of actually KEEPING ONES HOME...

Which means fewer homeless people...

Which means fewer social problems...

Which means lowered costs in regard to the personal health and well-being of men, women, children, entire families and communities...

As of 2/7/09 (see the blog entry down below) President Barack Obamas Economic Reinvestment and Recovery Plan included a proposed investment of $2.9 Billion for "Weatherization Programs..."

A worthy investment?

I'D SAY! [This certainly doesn't LOOK like "child's play" - does it?]

Which is true, in my opinion, of the rest of the Economic Reinvestment and Recovery plan (the part outlined below; more personalized updates hopefully coming) as well!

Please don't let partisan politics get in the way of NEEDS.

Please don't confuse "helping someone to help themselves" (which is what programs such as these do...) with "handouts"...

Please... contact your representatives (today) in support of Obamas Economic Reinvestment and Recovery Plan!

Also, please be aware that you can submit your own stories, ideas and views (you simply have to log in) at barackobama.com --- and that there are pro-Obama groups you can join (accessible through the same site) at Ulster County Community College; in Kingston, NY; in Red Hook, NY; in Woodstock, NY --- and all across the nation!

We need HELP (Just take a look around!) folks...

Please don't be afraid - or too proud - or simply too stubborn - to say so.

Respectfully and Thankfully Submitted by,

NS
