    Just wonder if everyone is ready for stimulus number 2?:insane:
    One wasn't enough and btw we haven't spent all of the first yet.

    Can anyone justify this nonsense?
    Whatever happen to common sense or are people intentionally trying to take this country into the depths of hell?:cuss:

    I think it would be more like like stimulus 6. There was the non-sense where I got 1500 bucks and TARP under Bush. Then there were all the non-TARP bailouts under Bush and Obama. Then there was ARRA under Obama. Then there was the the omnibus spending bill passed the day after ARRA.

    My bad, I would like to point out that I was against all of them.
    I forgot about the $1500, ours went directly to our IRS debt.

    This seems totally insane to me, where and when does it actually stop?
    Does anybody support this stuff?

    There are at least 218 Representatives and 51 Senators that do. That may be it.

    "when does it actually stop"

    The Law
    by
    Frederic' Bastiat

    *snip* Man can live and satisfy his wants only by ceaseless labor; by the ceaseless application of his faculties to natural resources. This process is the origin of property.
    But it is also true that a man may live and satisfy his wants by seizing and consuming the products of the labor of others. This process is the origin of plunder.
    Now since man is naturally inclined to avoid pain — and since labor is pain in itself — it follows that men will resort to plunder whenever plunder is easier than work. History shows this quite clearly. And under these conditions, neither religion nor morality can stop it.
    When, then, does plunder stop? It stops when it becomes more painful and more dangerous than labor. *snip*
    The Law is available on the Internet free of charge. In my opinion, every American would do well to keep a readable copy on his hdd. I have a very readable copy for the asking that I will upload for anyone who wants one. bastiatlaw at aol dot com
