"A Victory That Adds $4 Trillion to the Nation's Deficit — Most lawmakers used the term “victory†as President Obama signed the omnibus spending bill into law, avoiding a government shutdown. There were some victories for agriculture, such as making the Section 179 business expensing permanent, and extending bonus depreciation for five years. However, as former Texas Congressman Charlie Stenholm points out, the omnibus adds about $4 trillion to the nation’s deficit. “The deficit was completely ignored. No one is looking at the future. It’s all around the 2016 elections and who is going to eventually end up fixing the problem." Stenholm, who is a senior policy advisor and lobbyist for Olson Frank Weeda in Washington, D.C., applauds House Speaker Paul Ryan for saying regular order will rule in the future, avoiding the last minute legislating. Stenholm plans to draft a pledge and ask anyone running for Congress to sign it."
How can this work???
"That's a Wrap — As 2015 came to a close, LWP Capital Inc., formerly Legumex Walker Inc., moved forward with its voluntary liquidation and dissolution of the company. The company’s board of directors has resigned and at the close of the markets on Thursday, the LWP common shares were delisted from trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange."
