We still haven’t spent most of the $800 billion stimulus which was targeted to “shovel-ready” jobs, because the jobs weren’t ready.

Promising another $50 billion to be spent years down the road isn’t going to do anything.

I say this even though I marginally prefer that if we are going to spend money we don’t have to stimulate the economy, we might as well spend it on roads that will exist long-term and that we need, rather than on hiring teachers and public employees we don’t need or want.

Money is already being spent on infrastructure projects from the first stimulus so this second stimulus is just another scam just as the first scvamulus was.
