An incomplete headline
The headline reads, "Midand College given $1 million to train Chevron employees" but it leaves out a pretty important piece of information, i.e. that this $1 million dollar grant is coming from the federal government.
I love Midland College. And I love Chevron.
But, no kidding, with Obamaian trillion dollar per year deficits as far as the eye can see (not to mention the single largest monthly deficit in U.S. history) does the federal government have any business shelling out grant money so that Midland College can train employees for a company that makes about $15 billion per year?
