HOW CAN I WITH A SMALL BUISNESS GET A STIMULUS,

THE ROOFING INDUSTRY IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT INVESTMENT SOMEONE CAN MAKE, ALL OF THE VALUES LAY UNDER A ROOF.

I'VE ADVERTISE AND SPENT ALOT AND NOTHING. I THINK A GRANT WOULD HELP IN PROVIDING THE ADVERTISEMENT AND EQUIPMENT I NEED.

ANY THOUGHTS, FOR SOMEONE WITHOUT CREDIT

for many real people means:

Getting health care security somewhere other than from the employer group plan at the job they USED to have.

Having your money in the bank actually pay something back to you for it being there.

Loans available to small business at low rates, rather than Citigroup getting it from the government for nothing and loaning to you at 9%.

A moratorium on foreclosures so that the value of YOUR house does not continue to drop like a rock due to others sitting vacant in the neighborhood.

A return to a taxation model more like the 1050's---so your government is not deadbeat broke.
