Stimulus $ - How it's spent

See this article...interesting.


"We're really pleased with the pace of obligations. We think that the money has been getting out. It's been getting to people, whether it's tax relief in their paycheck every week or whether it's a $250 stimulus payment or whether it's unemployment insurance or whether it's relief for state budgets in terms of Medicaid assistance."

cRaZY!

NOT VERY COMFORTING...THIS WEEK...'OUR GOVERNMENT'!
I'd rather see our stimulus $ going to this situation....and never mind worrying about global warming!
