We The People Stimulus Package

[Baill Inneraora]

Here's the problem with all the "stimulus" **pork** money that Congress is spending: WE DON'T HAVE IT!!!

Any rational person, if they were in the red, would STOP spending to right the ship. Our beloved Federal government keeps borrowing money they don't have! It's like a person charging shit when they are in debt in the hopes that will somehow HELP.

It won't.

No, the Government is not like that at all. Deficit spending sometimes can be a very good thing. IE Civil War, Great Depression, WWII.

A good economic upturn means more receipts coming into the Gov and that wipes away the deficit. IE the Clinton years.

Maybe we'll borrow it from Rhodesia/Zimbabwe.

Rhodesia was a beautiful country, now its zimbabwe and a disease infested shithole.
I doubt it.

Sarcasm much?

Yeah, between Monaco and Rhodesia, I would have had to think long & hard to decide which to visit in the 70's. Yowza...
