Truckers' Trucking Forum/Message Board - The Premiere Truck Driver Forum

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

Democrats: Stimulus plan no quick fix for economy

Democrats: Stimulus plan no quick fix for economy

Quote:
WASHINGTON – The White House warned Sunday that the country could face a long and painful financial recovery, even with major government intervention to stimulate the economy and save financial institutions.
"We're off and running, but it's going to get worse before it gets better," said Vice President Joe Biden, taking the lead on a theme echoed by other Democratic officials on the Sunday talk shows.
At the end of the Obama administration's first week, the party in power at both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue sought to lower expectations for a quick fix despite legislation expected to pass by next month that would pump billions of dollars into the economy. Democrats also opened the door for even more government aid to struggling banks beyond the $700 billion bailout already in the pipeline.

WASHINGTON – It's shaping up to be another lousy year for workers, with more companies expecting to cut payrolls in the months ahead.
That's part of the latest outlook from forecasters in a survey released Monday by the National Association for Business Economics that depicts the worst business conditions in the U.S. since the report's inception in 1982.
Thirty-nine percent predicted job reductions through attrition or "significant" layoffs over the next six months, up from 32 percent in the previous survey in October. Around 45 percent in the current survey anticipated no change in hiring plans, while roughly 17 percent thought hiring would increase.

It didn't work in 1931, it didn't work in (Japan) 1980, what makes these idiots think it will work now?
Isn't the definition of INSANITY doing the SAME THING over and over again; EXPECTING DIFFERENT RESULTS?

The libs want this huge spending bill so bad they can taste it. It has nothing to do with solving the economic problems we face and everything to do with social agenda. They see this as their big opportunity to get all kinds of money for their social programs disguised as 'stimulus'.
They need to remember they will be held accountable after all the spending is done and the economy is still broken.
