Re: Speaking only for myself, research into the possible causes of and possible remedies for Global Warming is a worthy cause, however it isn't something that directly stimulates the economy. It should be addressed separately. I think that's what has people irked. It is not something that directly stimulates the economy but it gives the impression that it was slipped in on the sly to appease a special interest group with a political agenda.
From my perspective, if it needs to employ people to accomplish, then it creates jobs, ergo it's stimulative. We can of course argue of how to create the most laser focused bill towards job creation, but from my perspective, if you are creating jobs and at the same time addressing national issues like Climate Change and Energy Independence, then you get a double benefit.
Yes, the Dems are getting what they wanted, but they are creating jobs in the process. As a Dem myself, I couldn't be happier.
