[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 481744, member: 2189"] I saw that same point made about TARP and I reacted myself just like you until the calculator total popped up. As you said, mindboggling! I also heard this stimulus plan cost with add $10k of federal debt to every family of 4 in America. I do know that for every $3trillion in debt increase and based on the population of America being 300 million, that works out to $10k of debt to every person in America. In the last 8 years we've increased the national debt by $5 trillion and we've not finished factoring in the latest goings on. Where does it stop folks? At what point is the spending enough and we finally make the call to accept some pain for a bit in order to get our national house back in order. Did it ever occur to anyone that the worse person to ask for the solution is the actual person who got us where we are? If a CEO killed a business, would you then hire that CEO to save it? Why then do we continually look to the same bunch of thieves in Washington to save us, when it was under their watch that got us in this pickle to begin with and I'm talking both republicans and democrats. When will we have the courage to go to the polls and send a real message to Washington? [/QUOTE]
