Have any supporters of the Stimulus package heard of the 1921 recession?

Obviously they hadn't it actually began in 20 aand was fixed as you point out by allowing it to fix it self

When Obama tries to con the people by cooked up numbers to make his case and the Congressional Budget Office shows the real numbers, it is very scary the level of spending Obama and his Demobots are getting away with. As a % of GDP the spending ranks right up there with Zimbabwe and other glorious economies. "Federal outlays will soar in fiscal 2009 to $4 trillion, or 27.7% of GDP, from $3 trillion or 21% of GDP in 2008, and 20% in 2007. This is higher as a share of the economy than any year since 1945, when the country was still mobilized for World War II. It is more spending by far than during the Vietnam War, or during the recessions of 1974-75 or 1981-82."

I agree with you there. The concern I have is that we are now in a global economy and it's harder to pull through. I still believe it is a better choice than the current plan or New Deal 2.

So true have you also heard of the the 1893 depression.

Pelosi and Obama will never do that as it's their time to show the WORLD that Socialism and Liberalism really works.

Thank You for putting up some facts!

There is so little history in regards to economic collapses that there isn't really much to go on. All these examples from the past are interesting but so very different from the present problem that they are hardly relevant.

The supporters are not interested in learning from history, they only want new ideas or more specifically, ideas that fit their ideology.

Well, if you didn't notice... The democrats aren't very well versed in history.

Doesn't matter. Liberals 'feel' it's the right thing to do.

NOW you tell us.

This won't stop the POWER grab.

Hang on to your wallet!
