Reagan had some idea what made an economy run....we could all wait 16 months for a prosperous path lasting decades.

And yeah, we know, he could have used a better congress.

Let's talk about the Obama stimulus. You still haven't supported your assertion that the Obama stimulus is already working. Where is it?

Right, people that were to immediately be brought back to work have not been...it is not working as Obama claimed. We knew that it would not work and that he was either very inexperienced and confused, or lying. Which one do you think Obama is?

In 1981 we had tight money/high interest rates. Which was necessary because of all the inflation of the 70s.

This time around the fed has been letting the money flow. Which in the short run is good, but risks inflation in the long run, esp. when combined with a lot of fiscal stimulus.
