WW, I have know idea to what extent it is working but I do know if one school teacher keeps his or her job due to the stimulus it is one less job lost. I do know that the state of Georgia has already awarded contracts for more than $90 million in transportation projects that would not be happening but for the stimulus. Do you think the design and building of these projects are being done by ghosts. Georgia has several hundred million in the pipeline for additional road, bridge, harpor and public transit projects to get underway over the next 18 months. Obama originally wanted a bigger percentage of the stimulus money to be devoted to infrastructure but he was forced to pull back in order to get a couple of senate votes to prevent a GOP filabuster.

I have no idea where we will be in 12 months and neither do you in spite of your claims to the contrary. I do believe that if in the next 3 years the Dow is at 18000, unemployment at 3%, the budget balanced, a new healthcare system up and running to universal praise and cancer cured, you will be posting about how much better it would be if we hadn't been held back by Obama's policies.
