I think the bailout funds will be paid back and likely at a profit to the U.S. taxpayer.

and how exactly will we realize those profits? are we going to get a check that says "profits from your government mandated investment in the financial industry"? Will we get interest? or maybe we'll get some nice healthy tax cuts? LOL...yeah right.

Seriously, tell me how you expect those profits to manifest in a way that Joe Taxpayer benefits as an individual.

I didn't really STUDY the stimulus bill so I can't tell you exactly what was good or bad about it
Then how can you support it???
But then again, that was kind of the way it was rammed through congress before anybody could study it.

Maybe YOU could go over it and tell ALL of us how badly it was conceived.
I've had direct experience with people who are spending stimulus money. it's a joke. The only people who are benefitting (in the things that I am involved in) are government employes (state and local). It's actually amusing to see the government employees trying to figure out how to spend the money in a way that builds their little empire. But that's not the important part. It isn't my job to discredit it, it is Obama's job to justify spending MY dollars. He hasn't done that. Instead, everything i have seen is about feathering the beds of his direct supporters.
