Half of the 787 billion was tax cuts. The bulk of the other half went to extending unemployment benefits to the millions of people who lost their jobs to the Great Bush Recession. It's amazing how you people don't even know what was in the stimulus yet you pretend it was some horrible piece of legislation.787 BILLION reasons for not doing it.......................aka the Stimulus.................but they were too busy lining their buddy's pocket to fix the infrastructure................How do we pay for fixing our infrastructure? Raising taxes on the wealthy. That is the ONLY way to do it.Example....................
Liberal.............We need to fix the infrastructure.............we need a stimulus bill to fix our bridges, road and dams......
Conservative............How are we going to pay for it...................
Liberal.............You don't care about America..........you'll let it crumble to the ground around us......your obstructionism is killing us......
Conservative...........You miss spent money that was supposed to do that very thing.........
Liberal................We saved America from the evils of George Bush and now you prevent us from saving the infrastructure........
Conservative..........Again, how are we going to pay for it............................
Liberal..............Anarchist.....................
For liberals to say we rule by emotion and fear is the pot painting the kettle black.
And taxing the rich to see more offshore is just utter BS.............they are already leaving in droves and will do even more after they find a way to passage on the TPP, which in NAFTA ON STEROIDS..................
