Great POST! Good over-view. Didn't the Dems blow their first big chance as a majority with the 'Stimulus Bill'? Money spent for political goals. Not much for new growth. $288 billion for tax reduction $155 bill for healthcare $100 bill for education http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Recovery_and_Reinvestment_Act_of_2009
By the way, $700 Billion/350 Million people = $2,000 each. $700 Billion/230,000,000 American adults (18+) = $3,100 each Here's Mort Zimmerman, big Dem and Independant supporter. 2 min. vid--- http://www.bloomberg.com/video/62827274/
