Not EVERYONE supports the stimulus

Posted by Amber Gunn - January 27, 2009

In fact, 200 economists are going on record in public opposition to the massive stimulus bill. We got an inside email from Cato Institute today announcing that they would be running the below ad in the New York Times, Washington Post and Roll Call this week. Click here to view a larger image.
 
 
Did I mention the $825 billion stimulus package is barely less than all the money currently in circulation in the entire U.S. economy? Congress might as well reach into your bank account and steal half of everything in it. Make no mistake, the stimulus bill is a votes-for-cash scheme, the likes of which we have not seen in our lifetimes.
 
The stimulus package will cost every American family more than $10,000 on average. Compare that to the average annual cost of food, clothing, healthcare and housing in the chart from Heritage.
 
Is there anything left to say about it?
