Dipshit Nay Sayers Wrong Again: TARP Working Out Swell!!!
"It turns out, actually, TARP -- as wildly unpopular as it has been -- has been much cheaper than any of us anticipated," President Obama said Thursday at a White House summit on creating jobs.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke, who pushed for the fund's creation, made a similar point at a Senate hearing Thursday on his nomination to a second term.
"Unlike some of the scare stories about $700 billion being thrown away, I do believe . . . in the end that there'll be something close to a break-even there," Bernanke said.
The TARP fund may break even, that is, on its first and biggest use of taxpayer money: investing billions -- $205 billion as of Monday -- directly in banks.
Well--what in the heck happened to Americans making money off of tarp 1? Well--that went out the window with Democrats turning the pay-back of Tarp 1 into Stimulus bill jr.--
Don't worry you millions of laid-off Americans--Uncle Sam--plans on continuing to send you your stimulus check-aka (unemployment check) -if that's what you want to call it--because they sure as hell can't find a job for you--no matter how much debt they put us into.
JUST another example that massive government spending does not stimulate private sector job growth. The only thing that has been expanding in leaps & bounds is government, while the private sector is shrinking.
"The problem with socialism is that government eventually runs out of other peoples money to spend" Margaret Thatcher.
