RW, > What we're doing in a short span is adding about 10% to the total national debt

Per year?

> And they are dire... without all this action including the stimulus, TARP and the behind the scenes stuff, I think the economy would have come to almost a complete halt by now, with zero credit available anywhere.

Yeah, that's the story being sold by the Democrats. Even history will have a hard time judging whether "doing something" was indeed better than "doing nothing."

You have to be suspicious about that claim of "saving 3.5M jobs." What if we lost 3.5M jobs over the next four years, even with this stimulus bill? Obama will just claim that we would have lost 7M if we did nothing.

Reminds me of a snake oil salesman.
