"I don't see any evidence of that, other than liberals trying to prove a negative. "Yeah, unemployment at 9.5% sucks ... but think about how much worse it could have been." Yeah right." Very much like Bush justifying his idiot wars by claiming that they are why we haven't been attacked again..

>I don't see any evidence of that, other than liberals trying to prove a negative. "Yeah, unemployment at 9.5% sucks ... but think about how much worse it could have been." Yeah right. Yeah, right! images2.dailykos.com >There is no evidence that the stimulus is doing anything other than propping up a fundamentally broken system. Kind of stupid when the only way to "create jobs" is to keep up massive deficit spending. We live in a consumerism-driven system, like it or not. We need people to have jobs so they have money to keep spending. We need them to believe that they'll continue to have jobs so they don't hoard their money. No, that's not a great system. But it's our system and trying to dismantly it in ways that lead to the suffering of tens of millions of people isn't OK. >And all evidence points to the Democrats wanting just that. Permanent spending. And if so, so what? Spending that gets us something is good. -Z
