>>Tell me how the debt gets better if we spend on food stamps and unemployment? It gets worse! That is why I favor jobs. Jobs put people to work and they pay taxes - and the money they spend goes into the economy and pays more taxes. The money on food stamps is a dead end.<< Steve - If it were a simple choice between giving people food (or coupons to buy it) today, or giving them jobs today, then I'd agree with you. Unfortunately, while jobs may take weeks or months to begin reappearing, even in the best of circumstances, people need to eat today. I think we need to find ways of keeping the workforce alive as we work toward getting people back to work. - Allen
