Well, the governemnt can do but only so much... And now the Repubs have fairly well demonized the "stimulis" bill that Obama got thru with complete disregard that most economists were sayin' at the time that it was too small... And it apparently was too small...

Jobs don't grow on trees and if the public isn't spending then the only way to get jobs is for the goevernemnt to do it... Ain't new stuff here...

But the Repubs are motre concerned about getting back in power so they are doing everything they can to throw a monkey wrench into the machinery which means that the Dems are gonna have to do exactly what Bush did in the early 2000's and that is use budget reconciliation over and over to get things de-monkey-wrenched...

So it comes down to either fight ot quit for the Dems.... If they quit, they ceratinly will be big losers in November... If they fight, who knows???
