Another Crisis!!! SCOAMF to the Rescue!!

The SCOAMF has found another crisis.  (Thank his god:  Marx.)

Under the broad banner of "health," the federal government not only is telling Americans what to eat, it's also telling us to make our homes safer.

This week, the Obama administration released a "bold new vision for addressing the nation's health and economic burdens caused by preventable hazards associated with the home."

Yup.  That mold, lousy heat, radon--it's killing you.  So you're going to damn well fix it up!

...HUD Secretary Shaun Donovan says the federal government must do "everything we can to ensure that individuals and families have a healthy place to call home." He said the strategy "will help the federal government unify action (on) controlling and preventing major housing-related exposures and hazards."

We can't wait.

And as usual, MommyGummint will evade direct responsibility for any expenses!  So, the Feds will:

 --Establish healthy homes recommendations (homes should be dry, clean, pest-free, safe, contaminant-free, well-ventilated, and well-maintained and thermally controlled);

--Encourage adoption of healthy homes recommendations (federal, state and local regulations)

And, of course, spend a boatload of money:

--Create and support training and workforce development to address health hazards in housing (train people for new jobs in green energy and construction);

-- Educate the public about healthy homes (advertising campaigns telling Americans how their homes ought to be)

-- Support research that advances healthy housing in a cost-effective manner (taxpayer-funded grants to study the problem).
