            <title>Office Space Rentals -- check out this budget.</title>
            <link>https://squattersbutterfly.yolasite.com/the-vent/office-space-rentals-check-out-this-budget-</link>
            <description>Check out total cost of elections here&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://squattersbutterfly.yolasite.com/https://www.opensecrets.org/bigpicture/index.php?cycle=2012&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://www.opensecrets.org/bigpicture/index.php?cycle=2012&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Office Space and Staffing Allowances
GSA is authorized to provide “suitable office space, appropriately furnished and equipped” at any
location within the United States selected by a former President.32 The funding for this provision
becomes effective six months after the expiration of a President’s term of office. The FPA does
not provide specifications or limitations pertaining to the size or location of a former President’s
office space. Since a former President’s pension is comparable to the salary of the head of an
executive branch agency, GSA has historically applied “the cabinet-level office standard” for the
quality of a former President’s office space, equipment, and supplies.33 Office space costs for the
living former Presidents are shown in Table 3.&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;Table 3. &lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;Annual Office Space Costs for Former Presidents,&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;FY2014
Former President Location Square Feet Cost&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Jimmy Carter &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Atlanta, GA 7,070 $109,439
&lt;br&gt;George H.W. Bush &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Houston, TX 5,379 $179,691
&lt;br&gt;William J. Clinton &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;New York, NY 8,300 $414,380
&lt;br&gt;George W. Bush &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Dallas, TX 8,237 $420,506&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Is all this necessary? &amp;nbsp;this is just rentals. &amp;nbsp;With today's technology they could just stay home and be president using mobile devices instead of wasting money like this. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I know too logical right?</description>

            <title>Presidential elections and Campaign Money is wasted</title>
            <link>https://squattersbutterfly.yolasite.com/the-vent/presidential-elections-and-campaign-money-is-a-waste</link>
            <description>Americans are sick of promises&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;use campaign money to help cities and let media word of mouth&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;be advertisement&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;like oh so and so used his campaign money to fix our roads instead of paying for another commercial slinging mud at his or her opponents&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;don't tell us what you are going to do, use the billions in campaign dollars to show us what you can do. &amp;nbsp;all the news networks will report what you've done. &amp;nbsp; Its a win win.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;then you can post your plan about the things you ramble on about in your long speeches on your webpage and let the people come to you to read it. &amp;nbsp;use technology not jet fuel and skype&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We are tired of hear the same old rhythms, crescendos, and learned public speaking hand gestures. &amp;nbsp;We are bored with promises. &amp;nbsp;Take the money you would use for your image on a billboard and rebuild Detroit or feed some kids in a city. &amp;nbsp;That will attract attention hence news networks report and even if you lose the presidential race the money won't be wasted.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 12.6879997253418px;&quot;&gt;just a frustrated full moon thought&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

 years, could be 40 years, could be 50 years, could be a week. Could be 
tomorrow afternoon.&quot;&lt;/span&gt;</description>

 attract money. The key is, you have to find ways of improving the way 
you feel from right where you stand before things can begin to change: 
By softening your attention to the things that are going wrong, and by 
beginning to tell stories that lean more in the direction of what you 
want&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;instead&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;of in the direction of what you have got, your vibration will shift; your point of attraction will shift—and you will get
 different results.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p id=&quot;yui_3_16_0_1_1407241043216_198414&quot; style=&quot;margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;&quot;&gt;--- Abraham&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

The rampant ghetto violence we see there and in other urban settings stems from a defective black culture—a culture that black leaders like Mr. Jackson studiously avoid discussing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;&quot;&gt;Another $2 billion will not get black men to pull up their pants, finish school, get a job and take care of their children. Rather, the money will go to people like Jesse Jackson, who will use it to line their own pockets and keep the focus on what others can do for blacks instead of what blacks can do for themselves.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://youtu.be/wrBqsDNVKzA&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://youtu.be/wrBqsDNVKzA&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div&gt;Youtube video&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://youtu.be/wrBqsDNVKzA&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; class=&quot;&quot;&gt;advice for Jesse Jackson from Jason Riley Arthur of the book &quot;please stop helping us&quot;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://youtu.be/wrBqsDNVKzA&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://youtu.be/wrBqsDNVKzA&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; class=&quot;&quot;&gt;---clipped from C-SPAN Washington Journal&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;more appearances of Jason Riley&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://beforeitsnews.com/politics/2014/07/jason-riley-%E2%9E%A1-whats-jesse-jackson-going-to-do-with-2-billion-dollars-2639274.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; class=&quot;&quot;&gt;http://beforeitsnews.com/politics/2014/07/jason-riley-%E2%9E%A1-whats-jesse-jackson-going-to-do-with-2-billion-dollars-2639274.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>
