Some kind of bill needed to be passed – and us centrists and pragmatists can agree on that. But it’s not perfect and saying it is comes off as seeming like a complete total apology for the president or the Democratic party. Even several democratic lawmakers would will tell you this thing ain’t perfect.

Now would you all have called that wasted and/or non stimulative (blah blah blah) these arguments are stupid…because we live on some things that FDR really did take flak for giving. whether you think his spending then got us out of it or not… the most panned of his stimulative initiatives at the time …again now accounts for giving the structure and focus and growth to be our second biggest economic influx of economy from the world.

so please please please… at least admit…you don’t know what will get us out of this.

But that’s fine and I truly do hope it work but I’ve got this nagging question as far as the spending.

What happens to the new jobs and the saved jobs once they’re all paid out?

If the local governments can’t afford to keep people employed now without FED money what happens when after a year of employment there’s no more money?

And most infrastructure jobs do not come under the bid price and typically last longer then bid. At least that’s been my experience here in Florida.

The markets didn’t really look all that great today with the sub 8,000 dow close, so I’m guessing that Wall Street remains skeptical of DC.

Only thing that seems to be doing well is the precious metals I watch with ExactPrice http://www.learcapital.com/exactprice

Gold jumped almost to $950 and ounce! Silver came within sight of $14 and platinum is surprise me in spite of all the bad auto news.

Just tells me that investors are trying to hedge against the dollar.

So are all of these projects going to help us pay off our foreign creditors who loaned us all of this money by increasing our future exports to them? We’ll see. The prospects of our future economy will directly reflect on the confidence of our Treasury-bond holders.

If you broke down any federal budget of the past 20 years, and broadly classified things as “Education Programs” and “Community Development” would it really look any different than this, other than it being less money?

I have heard a completely unsubstantiated rumor from a close medical professional that there are clauses in this bill that change how the definition of “necessary care” is assigned from doctors to a government panel. Does anyone know if there is any truth to this, and if any other interesting clauses have been attached?

Regardless, I still agree this should go through.
