I know zip about economics, but I agree and think that that's why this 
country is not on the road heading out of Trouble.  The fact that the 
best and brightest(whoever that really is) obviously don't get that 
spending without the money in hand is bad tells me that the roller 
coaster has just made the first drop and we have a long ride ahead 
before things level out.  On a good coaster, you always have a notable 
first drop, then a bunch of ups and downs, and maybe one other killer 
feature, like a corkscrew or something.  So yeah, as long as people have 
their heads in the sand about what really caused this mess(and IMO, it 
wasn't the POTUS at fault so change is futile on that aspect), we are 
headed down, down down on a long, slow, torturous crash.
