I think it would be outrageous to have another stimulus package.
I think I'm just about a full blown Libertarian at this point.
We need change, yes, but in the opposite direction the DNC and GOP clowns are taking us in.
Yes for stimulus package! If it was not going to us, the people - it would go to the greedy CEO's of banks, Ford and GM, and any other company that dont deserve it. No, it will only hurt us. But I rather get it than this frauds..
Don't kid yourself. Those companies are already at the trough. They are using the name "stimulus package" and handing out some money to individuals in hopes that people don't get upset with the billions they plan to use to bail out these companies.
I'd like $50,000.00 so I can purchase a new car and $1,000.000.00 for a house with $500.000.00 in petty cash - don't forget to provide this also to all my friends and posters here in City-Data. See, you can afford it as it costs a lot less $$$ than the wars and you can just print more money anyways.
Sounds like the same people who complain about higher taxes, and the government taking their money are also complaining about a check from the government showing up in their mailbox. Some people are impossible to please.
It's not about higher taxes! It's about policy. Do you think I couldn't use an extra $600.00 in my pocket? Of course I could....the point is that we are in huge debt...we don't need to borrow more to give "individuals" money. Why? Because it's not going to help the economy....it didn't the first time and it's not going to this time.
It's likely it will help for what....about a week? Then it will be over. We need a solution, not a treatment.
Why Why Why are we even considering another stimulus package? I have to look it up for all you that are going to start demanding proof......but didn't almost 80% of people pay down their debts with that money? It worked for like a day or week......
SAY NO TO MORE STIMULUS!
You're all alone on this one. I believe Obama has far greater minds than yours working on this problem. I side with him. Remember, the economy has been ignored for 8 years under the village idiot.

So Bush was an idiot for sending out the initial rounds of stimulus checks but now Obama is a genius for wanting to go for round 2? mmmmmk.

You are just down right funny. Read this entire post, I am not alone.
I don't doubt Obama is smarter than I He didn't get where he is because he is an idiot.
The people who "complain" about higher taxes DON'T GET a check in their mailbox. They make to much money to get one. So, their tax money goes to someone else. So no, those people are not impossible to please. Their tax money gets taken and given to someone else in the form of a check. God forbid they see some of their own money back. Seems fair to me.
I don't get one, but at least my son does, so not complaining as I would probably end up giving him money anyway.
I've heard this elsewhere, and I agree. It's time for a March on Wall Street. The proposed date is Black Friday, November 28th, at 10AM from City Hall in NYC, down Broadway to Wall Street (less than 1 mile). Also being called for is a boycott on Christmas shopping for that day, traditionally the biggest shopping day of the year. It's supposed to be a protest for the 70 BILLION in planned Wall Street bonuses that are set to be paid out by companies that received $$$ in October's bailout.
I think it's a great idea. Has anyone else heard about this?

I agree 100%. Government spending is out of control if anything we should be looking at where we can cut not where we can spend.
