This has nothing to do with stimulus or paying off unions.
It has everything to do with a proposal some demcrats will be able to oppose on “conservative fiscal principals” to help them out in November.
It’s a political false flag op.
“Lame Duck Pork “
They can’t stop stealing our money, ever... even to help their election chances.
This is a lie. The Federal government ran out of taxpayer money $1.5 trillion ago. This $50 billion will simply be another expansion of the money supply which will further erode the value of this once great nation.
Furthermore, the entire 'plan' is quite disingenuous considering how heavily the original so-called 'stimulus' bill was marketed as an infrastructure bill. For $800 billion (which is more than the entire cost of the Iraq War under Bush), we should have had all our infrastructure built by now.
Japan’s been doing this for 20 years. It still hasn’t worked.
Just like FDR’s WPA which didn’t work.
There. I fixed it.
The GOP leaders in Washington should be demanding a forensic audit of where all of the original "stimulus" money went. We are aready now how many trillions of dollars in debt, and now he wants to spend another $50 BILLION? And, that's just the INITIAL "investment"? (spending the tax payer dollars on roads and airports is NOT an "investment"! No-one is getting any return on this money except probably the state DOTs, and of course, the hand picked construction companies.
How much is this 6-year plan going to cost in total? $50 billion on its face, but how much more will be spent over the course of this plan?i
I'd like to ask Obama how this is going to create lasting jobs for American ciizens? What happens in 6 years when the gov't stops subsidizing the industry? I guess he doesn't care because he won't be around to blame? Or, it's just one more treasonous action meant to further affect the economic situation
I don't suppose that liberals will ever figure out that problems do not get fixed by throwing more money at them. This is infuriating!
you mean, more stimulative infrastructure spending like this?

THe GOP needs a film documentary of abandoned “shovel ready job sites” libned with those stupid “ARRA” obama signs, already sitting empty across this nation.
There’s at least 25 miles along the southern NJ turnpike, obama recovery signs installed, miles and miles of dozers and trucks sitting in the median and by the roadside..... not a soul to be seen working.
exactly.... and where are those “shovel ready” jobs that the billion dollar stimulus lie was supposed to create? lies, lies and more lies.... and the sad part is that we knew WHAT he was when he was put into office...!

I noticed the frequent use of ‘Mr.’ Obama in the article. I wonder how many times GWB was referred to as ‘Mr.’ Bush by the NYT?
"A Mind Strong Back Is A Terrible Thing To Waste"
Obama needs to be impeached, tried for treason and brought to justice.
THIS will surely solve Obama's employment QUAGMIRE, eh?

Uh, I thought they already allocated a trillion dollars two years ago that was suppose to improved infrastructure. Oh wait. Silly me. That first trillion actually went to pay off Rat constituents like unions, public employees, ACORN, et. al. Gee, no wonder the economy didn’t improve. And apparently, according to current plan, it would have taken only 50 billion to improve infrastructure and “jump start” the economy.
But guess what, Obummer? You’ve already killed it, and no amount of “jump-starting” is going to bring it back to life under your regime.
I recently read a statement to the effect that the real problem with the economy is that the overall statist behavior of the Obama administration has left both business and individuals with no confidence in the long-term economic prospects of our nation.
Ya think? Ya think maybe folks have lost confidence because Trojan Marxists are in charge of the economy? Ya think maybe the natural reaction to redistributionists trying to claw wealth away from earners for redistribution to non-earners would be for the earners to hunker down and try preventing their wealth from being redistributed? You know, hunker down, as in not loaning money, not borrowing money, not spending money, not taking risks, not hiring, and not investing. You know, like simply performing no financial transactions at all, since not transacting is the simplest way to keep your wealth from being clawed away and redistributed.
Its simple, actually. Wealth is extracted from the wealth-creators by the leftist wealth-takers when money flows from one place to another, that is, when a financial transaction occurs. The takers have inserted various money-snatching filters in those money flows, and while stealing a little bit doesnt hurt too badly, when the money-snatching begins to siphon so much money that a net loss of wealth occurs rather than a net gain, then its necessary to shut the spigots.
You can visualize a financial transaction as water flowing in a pipe and taxation as a tap the government installs to steal some of the water. The wealth creators open the spigot and some of their wealth flows down the pipe, say, to sprinkle on a field in order to grow some new factories that employ people and produce goods they can buy with their earnings. Suppose 1000 gallons goes in one end, and the government steals 100 gallons from its tap and gives away gallon jugs to buy votes with or whatever. The remaining 900 gallons end up helping the new factories grow, people are employed, goods are manufactured, and wealth increases for everyone involved. In other words, the economy continues to function.
Now suppose the government steals 400 gallons to redistribute and only 600 gallons get through to grow the new factories. Well, the factories fail to grow, and the wealth creators say, This isnt working, the heck with this, and they close the spigot. Now theres no new factories, and the government gets nothing either. You know, pretty much like the economy we see today under the helm of the Obammunist redistributionists.
Basically, this is simply a modern version of Aesops fable, The Goose That Laid the Golden Eggs. The Trojan Marxists currently in charge of the economy are busily eviscerating the goose to reach those last hard-to-reach golden eggs in order to slice them up and redistribute them. Its no wonder the golden egg supply has dried up, now is it?
It’s not a project that will employ as many workers as in the Depression. They will employ heavy machinery to do the work that it took a hundred or a thousand men in the past. This is just a union giveaway.
so his spending does not work so he wants to spend more on jobs which last , what?
6 years , 5 years , 1 year building a road.
This man has never ran a hot dog stand and now he is running the country, is it any wonder why many want their vote back and the ones which do not need to get a grip of themselves as they are the dumbest voters this country has ever produced
