Stimulus = Waste

Amazingly, this was found on CNN.

"The recovery is picking up steam as employers boost payrolls, but economists think the government’s stimulus package and jobs bill had little to do with the rebound, according to a survey released Monday.

In latest quarterly survey by the National Association for Business Economics, the index that measures employment showed job growth for the first time in two years — but a majority of respondents felt the fiscal stimulus had no impact."

So basically, like we all know and predicted, the ~$750 billion spent on the “stimulus” has done nothing and has little to no effect on the economy and its “recovery.”  This can also be seen in a study by Gallup that shows the creation of jobs by the Federal Government significantly outpaces the private sector.

So basically Obama’s effect so far, both with the stimulus and other legislation, has been to shrink the private sector and grow the government.  And don’t think that this just happened to be a side effect of his actions – it is the goal.
