People blow things out of such proportion that it gets torn apart and spread throughout the media in the worst ways. 

 

So what if it costs more than the war? It was money spent solely on our country in an effort to prevent further job losses and stimulate the housing market... with additional money for medicinal research, battery research and other technological advancements.

 

It wasn't money blown on a war so we can send thousands of people to their deaths without a noticeable significant outcome. For all I care, if its money thats going towards our country and not 3 trillion that he's borrowing to send off to China, I really don't care... and neither should you.

It was money blown to keep business alive that should have sank. Why does GM/Chrysler get to stay afloat when they couldn't run their business right? Ford seemed to be doing fine with out governement help. Why do banks that lent money to people they shouldn't have stay in business? So they can repeat what they did and get rewared? If these companies had failed better instutions would have taken their places. Instead we threw moeny at a problem hoping it would fix it. Everything I read in the paper says things are not looking great. Consumer have no confidence as no one knows if they will have a job in 6 months to a year. The houseing market that was recovery (due to the government helping home buyers) seems to be receding again ( at least in my area southern CA). We should care because its our money being spent in frivilous ways, do you care to send me a check so I can buy a ps3? I would greatly apreciate it :)
