The thing about the stimulus bill was that it was sold as a job creator, shovel ready projects we would fund to improve our infrastructure. But as the president himself pointed out, those jobs weren't as shovel-ready as they thought. So the question is whether they miscalculated, or did they know all along it wasn't going to be as successful as they made it out to be.
So now it's the same song, second verse. They (dems) say we need to pass a jobs bill to improve our infrastructure, but why should we believe this time will be any different? Mismanagement, political favors, poor implementation and execution, why should we think this time it'll work? What if it's just another temporary money drain, at hundreds of thousands of dollars per job that disappear once the projects are over? A year from now UE drops right back down and we're right back to where we are now except we owe an additional trillion bucks of debt.
Sorry, I ain't buying it. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me.
