1. (The Stimulus)If you think it's wasting tax payers money, do not use the money for your state. None! Cut Taxes. Isn't that what you do? Cut Taxes for the rich.

The arrogance that these people show is nauseating! Now I understand why they choose the Elephant as their symbol. Doesn't the Elephant have more ***** than any animal on land?


2. Our Economy is at a downward spiral, I hear all the time that it's Clinton fault for allowing Banks to get us in trouble like this.

We did have a surplus. Am I right or wrong.

To be honest I blame him also. But to play a pile a tricks(politics) right now when people are losing there jobs is pathetic.

So! Since The Elephants do not have an answer for our problems.

We need this huge Stimulus.

We need more Stimulus like we need more strains of aids. Why not try to educate yourself on the problem prior to posting opinions? It is impossible to fix the problem of too much debt by taking on more debt. If you do not believe it try it for yourself. Spend more money than you can afford to pay back and then borrow more to solve the problem, and then come back and tell us all how it worked. The only thing that will solve the giant problem caused by the financial iresponcibility of the past 20 years is a lot of time and pain. All this debt must be dealt with the old fashion way, thru lower prices, job losses, and foreclosures. Government Stimulus is not free; you will see crippling taxes in the future to pay for this insanity. As a final thought if you really think there is any difference in the political parties you are delusional. Both parties criminally sell out the American public to corporate interests and shamelessly live like royalty while doing it. If you study history every 80 to 100 years the country has a crisis that threatens its very existence. The first was the Revolution, the next was the Civil War, the next was WWII, and now we have our crises. The question is do we have what it takes to survive?
