Fred, 1/3 of the stimulus was tax cuts. If you make less than $250,000, then you got a tax cut. So, if you really don't like the stimulus, give back your tax cut. You are a direct beneficiary of it if you got a tax cut. Economists are pretty much in agreement that the stimulus prevented the economy from going into free fall. Your cherry picking of certain stimulus programs and their effects is stale Fox News and talk radio tactics. Isn't it funny how right wingers never discuss things on a macro level? Instead, they have some micro-level anecdote which they hail as the entire story.

Also, I bet one of those 55 people who got a job think the stimulus was well worth it. Where are all the jobs tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans supposedly created? They are nowhere because trickle down economics has once and for all has been exposed as a failure.

For anyone who does not know this, there was a mosque INSIDE the World Trade Center before it was destroyed and almost five dozen Muslims were killed in the attack.
