RW, > Wasteful or not, spending is stimulus. Do you deny that?

Yes I do.

How many times did you claim that the Bush tax cuts were a "gift to the rich"? Using your words, "It may be dumb, but it puts money in peoples pockets and they spend it and that puts money in other peoples pockets."

> If somebody gets a buck and spends 50 cents thats commerce that wouldn't have happened.

That buck appeared out of nowhere. Printed money. Third-world nations have tried that and failed miserably.

It amazes me that so many wingers claim to understand economics, yet seem to fail to grasp some of the simplest aspects.
