Keynesians, not supply siders, but the Dems won. That is to be expected. So we are going to get a 700 Billion program. We wish it was Corporate Tax cuts, but the Dems will feed the bottom end, of course. Summers, et al, know that the FDR programs failed, and why. How much pressure can they put on Obama, and how much can he control Reid, Pelosi and the rest of the Congressional economic idiots? A lot of this largess will go to build windmills. A lot to the dole in the way of unemployment insurance. Do we get rebates next spring? Probably double what we got last spring. Interesting times coming up. For me personally, it will be good. My SS check goes up 5.8%, my GM bonds continue to pay, and the travel slowdown will keep my rent from rising. They will probably be able to keep inflation under control by letting the dollar get cheaper against other currencies. The Asians are stuck.
