What The Stimulus Did & Didn't Do For States (interview, Obama, dollars)

[Motion]

Stimulus saved jobs, but major cuts are coming


This is how the stimulus affected Ohio which I assume is similar to it's impact in other states. I thought this was a good 2 year review of the stimulus. I thought someone interviewd in the article made a good point about how states benefited from the stimulus had much to do with how they spent their stimulus dollars.

Do any of you feel that much of the stimulus was a waste of money in the sense that it is only delaying things that are going to happen anyway? The stimulus they say saved certain jobs and programs. But cuts to those jobs and programs seem to be coming anyway since the stimulus dollars are starting to run out. Should the stimulus had been better targeted?

Oh yea Obama caved on the stimulus thing...Not only did he not fight to make it more effective ( too small and too loaded with tax cuts) He's now reversed himself totally and is on board with the GOP drive in cutting government spending. Which will result in a text book reversal of a stimulus effect, ....deflating the economy.

He's a huge huge *****.

Folks if you want less income, less jobs, less opportunity for your kids.....you got it...it's on the way.
