That didn't do squat, as was very predictable.

It was predictable, because it was intuitively obvious that adding a trillion to our 13 Trillion in debt was NOT going to make businesses feel like hiring. Had it been done without the wasteful spending, who knows what might have happened.

However, by every rational measure, the overall package did a great deal. That is undeniable. It just wasn't big enough to solve the problem.

Yeah, well, you and Krugman seem to be the only idiots who believe that.
