Two Florida school officials won't go to jail for praying

Afterthought: I don't know why this didn't occur to me before, but a large part of the stimulus, especially the part that went through already, was in the form of tax breaks - which, definitionally, are going to show up as a drop in tax revenue. So, there you go.

The unemployed have the largest tax break, and the unemployed who have run out of unemployment benefits have it even easier.

As to the rest of your post... it is a perfect statement of why we disagree. The facts are in the numbers, and if you dig around and look at the quarterly numbers for 2009 you will see what I'm talking about. The bulk of the "stimulus" bill was not stimulus, it was bail out money that was spent on social services. It was a multi-trillion dollar economic anesthetic to numb the pain for a few months or so. It will wear off.

I'll leave it at that.
