The Long March to Gazebos, Part II
Two more sane voices on the economic-stimulus bill:
Robert Samuelson and
Clive Crook. From the FT's Crook:
Politicians seem unaware. Jobs are evaporating, the housing market continues to deteriorate, a fresh and even larger wave of mortgage foreclosures may be approaching, the financial system is prostrate. Meanwhile, Democrats dream their dreams about reinventing America and Republicans recite their anti-government catechism.
Neither side seems to care much about delivering the fastest and most effective stimulus the country can get.
