		<description>Here&#039;s the thing.  This shouldn&#039;t be a partisan matter.

The Administration claims that the bill will produce 3 to 4 million jobs, that&#039;s $275,000 per job.  The average American earns  $27,000/year and pays ~$2,400 in federal income taxes.  Now, tack on the interest cost of the ~$800 billion bill and the cost/job ratio really goes out the roof.

Now, most of those jobs aren&#039;t sustained jobs.  When you look at from a perspective of what the tax payer is really getting back, it&#039;s a no go.

It could be written to make sense but the pork train unloaded on this bill.</description>

		<description>Patrick,

Wow...that is the mother of all bills. But you can scan it and pick out things like $50M for National Cemetery repair and $325M for an Innovation. Gotta check and see if Recovery.gov is up yet.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know about who&#039;s fault the lack of support belongs to. I went through the spending data in the 647 pages &amp; the amount of non-stimulus spending is much greater than spending on stimulus related items.
