It sure is a comedy, you'd be closer to the truth watching a Michael Moore flick.

Sadly enough, there's probably more truth to it than most of us even realize.

Not really. I hear that crap every time I go to my parents' house. No need to actually pay to see it.

If they truly believed in small government, they'd be proposing ways to really make it smaller. Instead, most of the anger is about "pork" and assistance to needy families.

Well, we saw what happened when people did what they wanted with their money. Maybe it is better spent by bureaucrats.

I am being facetious, but I also disagree with the premise of this movie.

Stimulus money is a legitimate tool to limit a temporary downturn in an economy. It just is. It is not a perfect tool. But it translates into increased employment and increased spending faster and more efficiently than any other tool. It does distort the economy a bit, and it doesn't create a permanent cure. But it helps prevent a very precipitous downward spiral.

Deficit spending has been used by the very people who decry it today. In the 80's, the conservative pundits were defending the policies that created deficits. Apparently their moral objection to a deficit is assuaged if you give them a tax cut and pay for it with borrowed money. Now the same voices have apparently forgotten what they wrote.

If you are a real libertarian, I apologize. You have intellectual integrity and I respect that. The rest of you are just hacks and complainers, and you never lifted a finger when someone in your party was racking up debt.

It continues the game plan: Say what will sell, and if they buy it, give the profits to the fat cats. It was the modus operandi under GWB, and Wall Street and the banks managed to carry it on under the "socialist" MO.
