Doesn't seem to have done much good, does it? Unemployment was supposed to be held to 8% if we passed porkulus, now its 10.2% and likely to go beyond 12% before its over.

>> Not as significant as a depression.

You keep repeating your mantra, but the facts are that no competent economist believes the 800 Billion "saved us" from a depression. Most believe the Bush $350B TARP expenditure did it; a few believe the 2nd 350B in TARP did it. A few believe the Stimulus was too small to have helped.

No knowledgeable economist believes what you claim. Only the Obama head nodders like yourself believe this.
