According to a headline on Drudge, Obama's expenses will be $11,300 per American.
Now, I realize some of that is probably in non-negotiables like social security and killer robots...but I suspect a large chunk of that money is new stimulus expenses. Let's just ignore the difference for a moment.
I want to know what would happen if you asked the average American: "Do you think you would be in a better situation financially if the government spent $11,300 on things it thinks you want, or do you think you would be better off financially if the government just gave that $11,300 right to you?"
Personally, I think I could do a much better job stimulating the economy with an $11,300 gift card to Best Buy or Toys 'R' Us for that matter than the government will ever do starting programs that I'll probably never use...but that's just me..
