Politicians have 24 hours to get this trillion dollar baby going. But is it enough? Maybe the stimulus package needs two or three trillion?

With all the pork added, why should there be limits expressed? Why quibble over the small change and give every politician what they want?

And.. how long will it take for the politicians to start their tirade about revamping social security?

Where the heck is all that money going and why is it not expected to be paid back, with interest?

I really haven't seen anything in the way of pork in the bill.

As to interest, yes, it will be paid back with interest.

Not much choice at this point.....the Republicans painted us into a corner.

Pax!

Yeah, "the decider" sure put a big hole in productivity. The private sector is at the bottom of the barrel. Already spiraled down. So, that means things can only go up from here. :P

However much Obama's stimulus plan might spend, it won't be waste.
