you need to understand the German mindset. Because Germans have historically lived through scarcity they react quite quickly to problems and tend to frame them in terms of things getting scarce. They framed that in 1933 as a need of more space for themselves: "Ah, if we at least had Ukraine" But the Ukrainians were already there! Which I think they did not consider beforehand. The bitch being a politician she knows that you need to raise fear among your potential electorate and then propose the solution. Machinery, she cited in her diatribe, are a mainstay of industrial Germany and very visible as suffering from the crisis, thus electorate can relate to it easily. Then, she tries to instill on them the thinking leap: no truck no food. No wagons nor locomotives. No food. Then she would have them. Did you read that Experiment is the best in her school at analysing texts? and she is going to be interviewed by Gazeta do Povo? It is my genes at work....

ARRA helped the economy begin to bottom out faster than it would have otherwise. Jesus, the stimulus de-stimulated! economists say that the president’s $787 billion stimulus package has helped blunt the downturn in limited but discernible ways. Even the poverty alleviaton part de-stimulated: The tax cuts included in the plan, economists said, have had less of an impact because people tended to save the money or use it to pay down debt rather than spend it. nytimes.com
