A question for those who are against the stimulus spending bill?

zapper23 asked:


I heard an economist this morning say that if we did nothing, it would take a couple of DECADES for our economy to level out and turn around. Doing nothing is not an option. I’m not thrilled with all the spending that’s going on or the new spending that is going to be coming in the future anymore than the rest of you. If the stimulus bill is not the answer than what is? Would you rather have the government do nothing and let the country go into a depression? Because that’s what would happen and a depression is extremely hard to turn around. So what’s your answer to this problem?
Thanks to those who actually took the time to give their opinion on this question. There are some very interesting answers.

If you support the stimulus bill and it doesn’t work, will you also support the next spending bill?

What happens if six months from now the President says “We didn’t do enough, we need another trillion dollars”.

Support whatever you feel comfortable with. I am just wondering what your threshold is concerning government deficit spending.

Do Republicans realize that a stimulus bill and a spending bill are the same thing?

Mr NiceGuy asked:


When you spend money it stimulates the economy.
so
Spending=Stimulus.
Stimulus= Spending.
Mebbe I should use smaller words…..
Yah, that’s what I thought…..
Sigh

Well, if this anti stimulus plank in your platform don’t work out, at least you have that “Obama is a scary muslim/ anti-Christ/ terrorist” thing to fall back on.
