If you flood the economy with 500 billion in deficit spending you'd BETTER stimulate. Problem is, it's very cost inefficient and unsustainable.

Yeah, I suppose Bush should've said "tighten your belts, folks - you brought the bubble and the crash on yourselves and now we need to raise taxes and cut spending 'cause you're not carrying your weight any longer." Then we'd be in the same situation as Japan all through the '90s or the US in the early '30s before FDR. That would be GREAT for the Democrat dwarfs - screw the people. No wonder you're so pissed that the economic stimulus is working - your idols have nothing to run on but empty, foolish lines like "GDP growth isn't real - it's all a big lie."

Anyone can spend money.

That's a classic. On par with, "Let them eat cake."
