The fact of the matter is that we are in or near another recession, some think we never really got out of the last one. One can claim that Obama inherited a pretty bad mess, and that would be true. One can also claim that the near trillion dollar stimulus avoided a worse depression, which is somewhat less provable. Would we have been worse off? Maybe. Could we have done a better job and been more effective ith that money? I think so.
What I can say with some certainty is that all that money was poorly spent, the programs and policies of the Obama admin have been poorly designed, marketed, implemented, and managed. 4 effin' trillion dollars of new debt and what do we have to show for it? And it's real hard to blame any of that on the GOP.
So here we sit with zero job growth and revised numbers for June and July downgraded by 58,000. That ain't a rosy picture folks, and excuses don't feed the bulldog. More gov't spending ain't going to work, sure you get a burst like a sugar high but then when the money runs out the economy goes back in the tank. **** that, we need to go in a different direction, one that Obama and the dems do not want to try. Don't know what his new jobs plan is, but I'm pretty sure it'll involve more gov't and more spending.
