Look at the stock market!!

Look at the improvement on jobs!!

Look at the rising dollar!!

So what is it, were you against the Stimulus? They keep attacking Charlie Crist for being for the Stimulus, and it turns out he was right....
 
You cant have any type of fix in this economy when more money is still going out than coming in.... Its been happening for a long long time.
 
2 things are wrong with the recovery in repuklicans eyes.

A democrat is in charge, and he's black!!!

if it were mcain they'd be jacking off to these numbers

No, the Keynesians have the same excuse everytime. The policies do not improve the situation as stated then they come with the "It would have been worse card" even though in economic history the reccessions with the least Government involvement are the shortest and when Keynesian policies are inacted they last longest and that's just a fact.

"Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence."

John Adams
 
The stimulus has only inflated the financial bubble more. Keynesian inflationary tactics can only work for so long, eventually the market will bring prices - and over-valued capital and goods - back down to actual market value. The reckoning will come eventually; the state can only worsen it by prolonging the process.

Real wealth can only be created by savings and productive capital investment.

Yes, facts are indeed stubborn things. And the facts show that pre-Depression recessions were longer and occurred more frequently than post-Depression recessions.
