Soros neglects to point out that Obama’s “stimulus” didn’t fund either consumption or investment – it was a handout to public sector unions and foreign “green corporations” coupled with a one-year extension of salaries and benefits to public sector employees. It didn’t build dams, bridges or utilities – it created a mountain of new debt while perpetuating the same culture of entitlement that has Europe poised to plunge off of a fiscal cliff.

It is all self stimulation on the part of the ersatz economists in the government and it will make the economy go blind.

Vote for Christine O'Donnell. She is against self-stimulation.

Stimulus - a Dim slush fund used to (attempt to) buy votes.
