One trillion dollars needs to be spent immediately

One trillion dollars needs to be spent immediately. Wasn’t that what they told us about the seven hundred billion dollar bank bail out? Why yes it is. That is exactly what we were told. We can’t wait we must act NOW. We gave them the money and they bailed out their friends. Money was not injected into the economy. Business credit is still scarce.

Now we are told that “government is the only” entity that can save the economy? Don’t these people remember the “great depression”? Government programs extended the depression to ten years. World War II brought us out of the depression. Whether you like it or not stimulating business is the answer. Growing government only prolongs the agony. Keith C. De Filippis San Jose, CA
