Spend money to make money. Is that your formula for success? LOL. Platitudes don't make for good return on investment. You think foodstamps and welfare have good ROI? Nope. Do you think Social Security, Medicare, and the Military have good ROI? Absolutely not. That is where the deficits are largely coming from and the increases have all been on Obama's watch. Spoken like a true elitist. Only your money is green enough. Dude, while you and yours were eating steak instead of lobster, food stamps, unemployment checks, welfare etc were helping to keep the little guy, his family and the economy going. And FYI, people from small Midwest towns were going to food banks to supplement their food stamps.........those are 'salt of the earth' people........the ones that Rs portray as the 'real' Americans in this country. So not only was Obama trying to stimulate the economy, he was trying to keep as many little guys as possible from going under. Its easy for one to sneer when one's belly is full. And one last comment.........Obama isn't just your president to do what you want done.
