Ignore the dorkwad at top who suggests we spend more money we don’t have.
look at the last two paragraphs in middle of page before ‘Western Europe’
Job loss has slowed but we are still losing jobs. Somehow press interprets this as ‘getting better’. If a patient is hemorrhaging at 10 pints a minute then slows to 6 that is not ‘getting better’. When he stops bleeding he is getting better.

I just want to club on the head the apologists for huge govt overspending and ‘stimulus’.
since the govt takes 2x the money to create a job this simply puts us more in debt.
Remember: PO’d people change things!
If we simply did what canada did and stop states from going into long term debt, and stop the federal govt from both believing in the ‘Magical Mystical Money Fairy’ who produces $100 billion for any cause, no matter how stupid (or even good but unaffordable).
Maybe if I invent ‘Virtual Vomit’ (I guess that would be VV if you are texting?) I can barf across the internet onto Washington and onto all those piggies saying ‘we have to spend money on my cause’ or bail me out or bail my company out.
