"In fact, that's no different than a couple of homebuyers signing papers without reading them, all to jump into a home they can't afford."

Good analogy...

there may have been a better stimulus or a worse ones. I dont agree with supply side portion of the conservative alternative. However doing nothing is worse than doing something and i would say the same thing if bush was president and we were getting it all in tax cuts, hopefully gimicks involved that would work---eg debit cards, Fica holiday. I wish those were in obamas plan and i think they were repub supported.

And yes, I get it. We can't afford the risk of a depression, so doing something is safer than doing nothing. I'm actually a believer in doing something, as I have said repeatedly (but all you liberals keep ignoring anyway).

Uh.....its hard to believe you mean it when every other line is let the free markets take care of the problem.
