Now that the bill has come due, in true boomer fashion they are now trying to pass the bill onto their great grandchildren via Obama’s “Stimulus Plan” that will be paid by successive generations. Up until Reagan, according to Dick Cheney, "proved deficits don't matter", there were only two reasons for deficit spending, fighting a war, and fighting a recession. *There were 55,000 announced job cuts on Monday alone. *Frankly, I'm praying Obama's "Stimulus Plan" is enough. * This is already going to be a severe recession, without Obama's plan, it could very well be a depression. *Oh, and if something like the Great Depression were to hit today, it would cost this country upwards of $20 trillion. http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp...8?language=pri... Obama's stimulus plan could go a long way, if he wasn't using it as a power play. What percent of his plan is actually going to infrastructure, which was the big selling point around here? It was loaded with infrastructure and other known economy stimulants. In an effort to include Republicans in the process, he watered down the package extensively with things requested by Republicans. Then the Republicans chose not to support the bill that hwas now loaded with THEIR bad ideas. For every dollar you spend in tax cuts for corporations, you get back about $1.03 in results For every dollar you spend on infrastructure projects you get back about $2 in results- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Is that what Gerry Brooks told you? The Republican leadership said there was not one of their initiatives included.. If you disagree, Cite please.. I will await your insults, dismissals, etc... pfffttt... Talk is cheap. Obama's has proved about as credible as yours and Harrys... Obama shut down American news services during the campaign, and gave his first official TV interview to Al Aribia (sp?). He is releasing the Gitmo detainees and attacking Rush... He is talking bipartisanship, and enforcing none of it. He is banning Lobbyists, and filling his administration with them.... Barakolypse is upon us... You really need to switch to the coffee in the green can. This post by you is off the wall and incoherant. For openers, who is "Gerry Brooks"? I have no idea who that is. As far as cites, this is a major CURRENT news story, so you can easily find the facts if they don't disturb you too much and cause some sort of seizure.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Yeah, nice goosstep... |
