So Pelosi/ Obama have essentially obligated us to spend about $250,000 per job so we could loose 2,700,000 jobs. Makes you wonder how much we could have saved by spending ZERO? There are some pretty negative statistics there. I even heard Obama say this week that the the stimulus is WORKING. Working for whom, I wonder? And things are looking worse in the job department because Obama and Congress have done NOTHING to encourage business. Zero! No tax relief, no business credits, no new job cridits, no investment tax relief which would normally be the first thing to do in a recession. Instead all we get is Cap and Trade (enough new taxes to pay for both World Wars!) and incredible amounts of new debt which we now find bought us NOTHING. The Obama camp is fighting a war with the Chamber of Commerce this week! And they have nothing planned! No relief! Change you can believe in!
