Why does the myth that republican administrations are fiscally conservative persist?
Also, how can anybody not think the economic stimulus package the President just signed is about the stupidest possible thing to do to stimulate the economy?
Here’s what they’re doing: the government collected our money through taxes. Now they’re sending each of us $600 back hoping we’ll spend it. Dumb. According to polls, only 20% of people spend their refunds. Who could possibly be better at spending money than the government? Instead of sending us the money they should just buy one $600 toilet seat shroud per person. Economy stimulated.
Why do politics and reality have so little to do with one another?
