Leave it up to our legislative branch of government to screw up a stimulus package that may have had the good intent of revitalizing the economy. They voted down an incentive to home buyers that would have provided up to a $15,000 credit to home buyers that could have sparked an impetus to the housing market. Instead they voted to give money for pet projects to leading representatives of the legislature. Once again politics and the media are working against the people’s vote to bring about change in the way government is doing business. There isn’t a legislator with the intestinal fortitude to stand up to Unions representing governmental employees and sponsor a law that places a hold on contract increases and pension increases for a period of time until the government can be modernized. Billions could be saved.
Government has no concept of budgeting. They only know how to develop a spending plan with no other way of accounting for revenue except through tax increases and printing devalued dollars. Even a spending plan is botched. Where are you Mr. and Mrs. Citizen when meetings are held to discuss government modernization in your communities? A plan to stimulate the economy should be coupled with downsizing government and holding politicians accountable for their lack of ability to work towards a common goal for stimulus and downsizing.
Hey George,
I agree with you. If only politicans had more common sense.
