Tarp was under bush and alot of that has been repaid, stimulus was under Obama and that was given mostly to extend Obama's lefty policies and very little went to actual job creation.

airdvr 210 #54 September 7, 2010 Thought it might be fun to re-visit Lucky's position on tax cuts. Quote Are tax increases ever beneficial? If so, when have they been? Are tax cuts beneficial? If so, when have they been? This should warrant some kind of squirming or, if you're smart, just keep runnin. QuoteAND WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THESE TAX CUTS? Oh yea, fiscal disater on both counts. QuoteShow me where major cuts work. Let's use history over theory. QuoteThe ideology of cutting taxes my friends is a cult, rather than a logic of sound reasoning. Cut taxes fuck the outcome, just cut taxes. So Lucky, no that your hero is talking tax cut does that make him wrong in this area?Please don't dent the planet.

idrankwhat 0 #55 September 8, 2010 Quote Wasn't a large part of all the stimilus funding approved under Bush? QuoteH.R.1 Title: American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 Sponsor: Rep Obey, David R. [WI-7] (introduced 1/26/2009) Who was President on 1/26/2009? Quote2/17/2009 Signed by President. Who was President on 2/17/2009? And in January of 2009 what did the OMB say the projected deficit would be, even without any stimulus spending? If Ron Paul had been president #44 he would have inherited a $1.2 Trillion deficit, collapsing banking, housing and auto industries and a crashing stock market. Would that have been his fault? Would he have let those businesses fail? Would he have borrowed money to stimulate the economy or would he have been a true capitalist and let them all crash?
