Just say No to stimulus package?!!!
| Tue, 01-27-2009 - 1:44pm |
I see that Republican leaders in the House have urged their members to say No to the Obama economic stimulus package. But, this is no big surprise. The Republican idea of helping the economy is always to give a big tax break to the rich people. The so-called trickle down effect. But Republican economics have put us in the mess we are in right now. It is time to try something different. I urge everyone to contact their representatives and senators to pass the stimulus package. Average Americans are losing their homes, their jobs, and any hope for the future. We cannot afford to wait any longer.
Our country is headed for the second Great Depression in US history. Coincidentally, the Republicans brought on the first Depression back then. Many people suffered a long while before FDR’s programs slowly began to kick start the economy once again.
Tax cuts for the rich will not stimulate our economy. Even tax cuts for average Americans will not help us, if we do not have a job to put food on the table.

My mistake... I forgot we weren't dealing with objective reality...
Sorry, but someone who is an "adjunct professor" carries no more weight than I do.

In 2001 it wasn't quite as tough to sell a house as it is today. You were fortunate. And the guy who loses his job today, when his home value may be down 20-50% from his purchase price, is unfortunate. It doesn't mean one of you is better than the other.

I think that the CBO said that about 65 percent of the stimulus that the House passed today

It would be a great idea for families who lose their incomes to follow your example and sell their homes, except right now, it is very difficult to sell real estate, and many home owners owe more
