?? How is the bailout like what got us here?
The stimulus package isn't "across the board" budget increases, so I don't know why you are using that as a "for example"?
Do you agree that spending is what ends recessionary times?
I think our healthcare system is an overpriced disaster run by insurance companies and having little to nothing to do with medicine, I think sometimes receiving medical care in the US can be dangerous to the patient, and I am not that thrilled with Obama's plan.
I remember when the Dow first got over 1000, then again when it got over 5000. When it hit 5000, all anyone could talk about was how unbelievably artificially inflated it was, and how desperately it needed to fall and correct to reality.
