Didn't think so.
$17,000 was spent on stimulus for every man, woman, and child in this country. Where is the money now?
In the hands of wall street and the unions.
The dems might be pushing the bus thats in the ditch, but they are too stupid to take the parking brake off and instead of pushing from the rear of the bus, they are pushing from the side. Republicans aren't helping because the democrats ideas of how to fix the economy are fatally flawed and will never work. Why waste the energy?
Most any economist that favored stimulus said that was not enough, and certainly not for a short period of time. The parking brake that needs to come off is the the Republican obsession with tax cuts and just the kind of number you put forth there, and only the GOP can release it.
30 years of GOP economics put us in this ditch, and then people complain that the Dems. didn't pull us out in 2 years because they are "too stupid" to go back to the programs that put us there.
