Apparently, the GOP plan for "jobs" doesn't actually create jobs. It just funnels more money to rich people and corporations. Obama's job plan actually WILL create jobs.
But what do "experts" know? I mean really, why should we trust people who spend their time - their whole lives actually - studying these issues? Obama passed a stimulus bill in 2009, but we're still in a recession. So therefore, all stimulative spending is failure. Never mind that the numbers are pretty clear that the stimulus did arrest the slide into depression. Never mind that the recession has gotten worse as the stimulus funds have dried up
The American people know that the stimulus bill failed because the completely objective people at Fox News told them it failed. None of that book larnin and fuzzy math for me, buster.
The abject failure of our political process to hold people accountable for being flat-ass wrong is why we are in a stagnant, distressed economy. We actually have a party whose solution to the problems created by supply side economics and deregulation is MORE supply side economics and deregulation.
