I sure hope not, but it comes across with a foul stink.

SaiorGregS,
Great apology by the way, on the other thread.
If Obama and the democrats really wanted to fix the economy, there's one very simple way they could do it. The fact that they didn't do it shows me that they aren't serious, but either 1) they misunderstand the problem, markets and capitalism in general -- meaning private enterprise, value, goodness, and yes apple pie if you wish. Or 2) they just want to give their friends money.
Think about it, do they REALLY want to fix the problem of a weak economy, or do they just want to use this as an opportunity, to leverage this for their own ends -- usually a social agenda, but often a transfer of wealth to friends.
Think about it.
All they have to do to fix this whole mess is get out of the way. Just cut income taxes by 1/2. They could very simply use the same IRS forms. Just at the end of the forms, divide the amount in half before you send it in. That would do a HUGE amount of stimulus. I know what I'd buy and so do you.
But then, they wouldn't be able to help their friends as much, would they.
