Every time Pelosi opens her mouth and says something stupid (which is often) I keep wondering how she could top that, but she does. And to think she’s the Speaker of the House.

Well if the Government wants to subsidize my Middle class income by giving ME food stamps and unemployment benefits (even though I’m employed) then I’m sure that will stimulate the economy as much as giving me a tax cut.

This is bordering on insanity now. How do these people get elected. They are dolts.

And, since alcohol and tobacco are heavily taxed, the dems get a lot of thier money back.
I once stated that the govt. was more addicted to tobacco than the people who use it.

Just change two letters and call it what it is, a shamulus bill.

Sounds like even though she said that she felt like a 10lb anvil had been lifted off her head when Bush left ... she still has 10lbs of dead weight up there.

They are operating on the level of thier constituency. They will amass more power by promising the non-productive members of our society something for nothing. And those of us that work, and have all our lives will be demanded to pay for it.

In my dreams we march on Washington, dismantle every government building and take the material back to our home states. Maybe build new additions onto our state capitols.

Am I missing something or are they mixing up stimulating the economy with boosting social programs?

Infrastructure is code word for heavily unionized, no-show jobs ridden, wildly over budget, make work projects.
And you forgot one thing . . . provides kickback payments to politicians to line their own pockets from the crooked and corrupt bid process.

And no one asks her to provide an explanation,
much less a studied proof,
that her socialist assertion has any merit to it.
I guess it’s like most things about socialism - they just accept it as truth without any thought whatsoever.

I just want to see our “representatives” show up for work and all of the government buildings are simply GONE.
Seeing them wander in puzzlement at what to do now there is no warm place to park their rears and pretend to be productive workers.

Yes, we (here) all know that this issue is not at all about “stimulating the economy” but about implementing socialism.
Unfortunately, leftists won’t debate the merits of socialism honestly. They simply deny that that is what they are doing.

Well, at least Twinkies and Lay’s Potato Chips won’t have to worry about laying off employees.

If food stamps will stimulate, then making everyone eligable will stimulate even more.
