>> Now we simplyt need to keep stimulating. Like Japan... stimulating decade after decade. Nope, not like Japan. You are throwing out a strawman. For decades, Japan has refused to kill off its weak banks and take the steps we have done twice in the last 20 years to right the economy. No comparison between Japan and the US.........never has been; never will be. >> The stimulus should have been larger three years ago The stimulus has been in excess of 1 trillion dollars annually. How much larger should it have been? I guessing 4 times as large. At least twice as large. Something like 4 trillion dollars annual stimulus should do it right? Perhaps even more? I'm all for cutbacks in the military... Who transformed the Afgan mission from "Whack a Mole" with 30000 troops to a full scale occupation with over 100,000 troops? Why won't Obama withdraw from Afganistan and let the great massacre begin? Bin Laden has been dead for over a year. I agree with you here............withdrawal should have started now; not next year. Obama is moving too slow on this one.
