They spent the first 350 billion and it did nothing. Now they want the second 350 billion and it will do nothing. Then they will grab the big enchilada to the tune of 1 trillion. When that does nothing what then? The treasury already said they have no idea where the first 350 billion went. Does that not disturb anyone here?

The economy is no worse now than it has been in the past and we always recovered rather quickly except when government got involved.

When you or I run into financial difficulties, we cut our budget, stop spending and try to earn more money. What does the congress do? They vote themselves a pay rise and start spending money like a drunken sailor on liberty. Does that sound like a good solution to you?

You all are treating this as though it’s never happened before. Go look our are history. This recession is NOTHING new. ALL economies go through recessions some worse than others and then recover. You are buying into their scare tactics lock stock and barrel.

I don’t have much more to say about this but mark my words. If congress gets their way, they will run our economy so far in the ditch it will be decades before we recover if ever and the blood will be on their hands and our grandchildren will pay the bill... trillions of it.

Here’s my message to congress. Balance your budget, stop spending money like crazed maniacs, cut a bit off income and cap gain taxes. You will see credit, consumer and business confidence and our economy come roaring back to life. Sure, it’s a conservative approach but it works every time.
