You sound like a democrat zombie, unable to think for yourself - just like 90% of the people who voted for your saviour.

>> . When we borrow from China to give tax cuts, then I'm 100% against that, unless someone proves to me that the tax cuts are in an area like renewable energy that will drive massive new innovation, new jobs, and a substantial return on investment beyond the cost of the borrowing.

So, you must be against Obama borrowing nearly a trillion from China and others for various "stimulus" measures, none of which have worked, right?

Mindmeld, > I already posted proof that there was very little stimulative effect from the Bush tax cuts

There was indeed a stimulative effect. Probably not enough to lead to a tax revenue ROI, but enough to help spur a growth in the economy that eventually led to unemployment going as low as 5%.

By the way, Obama hasn't done anything substantial to push renewable energy yet. Just a bunch of platitudes and maybe some tax incentives here and there. Like I said, the Pickens energy plan, or something just as substantial, would be a start.
