Turns out they only give you 500 characters to use, so at least I won’t be boring you, dear reader…

Today’s comment goes a little something like this:

An economic stimulus plan that the left and right can agree on: Because consumers and businesses are the backbone of the economy, they deserve propping up, but let’s prop up those who are a greater backbone. How about propping up consumers who will spend their stimulus (those who make <$50K annually) and businesses who will do the same (those whose revenue is less than $100K/employee)? Such a plan promises to be less expensive, more popular, more effective, and (dare I say) more democratic?

  • I totally agree, why give the people who put us into ruin more of our money? Why not give us back our own money and let us do what we think is right, if that be start a business, buy a home, pay for college, pay off debt, invest in the company we work for…that would make a lot more sense than 40 bucks extra a month per family. I do agree with the restructuring of the electric grids and alternative fules or “green” economy jobs. That’s good for us all…but as for the rest, I’d really rather not have to be in debt to the tune of 175,000 per man woman and child so that some guy that alreadys has millions or billions gets another bonus or golden parachute.
