OT-E: I'd rather see me, you and everyone else have that money stay in their paycheck for each of us to use as we sit fit rather than Washington deciding for us. Having said that, I remain hopeful that some of this spending will accelerate economic activity across the country. What say the rest of the board? Does wbmw's list of stimulus expenditures inspire confidence? Is this the list of things that you would choose to spend your tax dollars on?
$26.66B in Infrastructure spending per state
$8.4B in Public Transit spending per state
$155M to build new health centers
$16B from HUD to weatherize homes
Link to $10.1B in other HUD ARRA funded programs
Note: I don't know anything about any proposed rail line from Disneyland to Vegas, sorry.
