@NickelDime: Keynsian, really?

I looked that up in the dictionary and it said, “see Socialism”.

This video wasn’t even worth watching, I stopped at 3:57 after Council Woman Ender discusses road improvements, I see these road improvements on McBean, Wiley and Orchard Village.

Perfectly good roads and center dividers with stamped concrete. All torn up and bushes and vegetation put there.

1) Aren’t we in a drought?
2) Isn’t this creating an additional ongoing cost to the tax payers?

I guess this helped keep some local jobs, THE CITY’S EMPLOYEES!

This stimulus helped only one employer folks, ALL LEVELS OF GOV’T

John Adams:

The WSJ piece is awesome. Even though I have only read about half so far, it is a concise and understandable explanation of why ‘stimulus’ does not work. I’ve saved it as a favorite so I can go back and send it to others.

Thanks!

I have been able to obtain never before seen video of indy at the local mall. My source wishes to remain private. So I can’t name who confirmed this is in fact indy.

Indy:
(in case you’re still looking at this thread)

There are numerous articles on the failure of Keynesian economics on-line. Here is a pretty good one:

What’s to learn? Nothing new under the sun. Republicans always say cut taxes for the rich and business. Liberals always say increase spending.

You are not original and neither am I.

John Adams: “Most of the money we’re investing as part of this plan will get out the door immediately and go directly to job-creation, generating or saving 3 to 4 million new jobs.” Is there anyone out there that wants to try and defend it?

Indy: yes, go here:

John Adams: The dept of education has about 5,000 employees and a budget of 68 billion

Indy: what portion of the money stays in Washington and what portino goes to the schools?
