The Senates Stimulus Bill

I have to take a break from my fitness posting to comment on our federal governments plans to pass a Stimulus Bill. There is nothing stimulating about this bill! It has every bit of pork spending that senators couldn't get passed through other approriation channels.

The Senate is using a down economy as an excuse to get every conceivable spending plan into law. News flash to our opportunistic senators: You can't stimulate an economy by injecting debt into it. You have to inject WEALTH into the economy!

Cut the payroll tax, nix the death tax and the capital gains tax. Allow the productive sector to keep more of what it earns so that it can invest the earnings into growing the economy. Drill for oil within our own borders.

Using the Senate's logic, as a head of household, I should go get another couple of credit cards and spend like a drunken senator. Introducing more debt into my budget is going to improve my fiancial statement?? Can't you see how rediculous that is?

Call your senator and let them know that the stimulus bill as proposed is unacceptable!

If you are a conservative, you are probabaly pissed as hell and have already called your senator. If you are a liberal, you are probably pissed as hell that I have dared write my opionion in opposition to the messiah and the senate.

In both cases, the best way to handle the stress of it all is to drop to the floor and pump out 30 push ups. You will feel much better.
