URGENT Action Alert: Stop the Stimulus!

The Congressional Budget Office says stimulus will do more harm than good. http://breakthematrix.com/node/33177

http://www.breakthematrix.com Stop the Stimulus bill in 5 minutes, without getting up out of your chair... Time to mobilize, Matrix Breakers!!

Not sure WHY the stimulus is bad? I looked pretty closely at the broadband part of the stimulus, and it absolutely will not work. Details here: http://bytestyle.tv

Also see the links further down this description.

We're joining forces with http://TopConservativesOnTwitter.org (an active coalition of libertarians, independents, Ron Paul republicans -- and, YES, "regular" republicans -- seeking less government and more freedom) to stop the stimulus! They've done all the work - all you have to do is start clicking, dialing, and passing this email and video along to everyone you can think of!

The Congressional Budget Office says stimulus will do more harm than good.

And special thanks to everyone who's called me names because you don't agree with my politics. Super classy ;)

If the stimulus is not the right antidote to get our economy moving again, what is? That's the first thing you should be discussing before you send everyone on a telephone/email mission to nowhere.

Read the article I posted in my comment - it proposes a solution.

I'm concerned that so many people are willing to accept the propaganda put out by the administration and the media, without taking the time to read the bill and understand where the money is actually going and what little chance it has of being successful. Want an example? Read my link in the video description about the broadband stimulus. I'd be interested to know what you think.

The biggest joke of the day on the stimulus package is that the Congress Critters voting on this turkey of a bill, only got the final document at 11:00 PM last night, now we are supposed to believe htat they are going to read 400 pages, digest and understand it, in time to intelligently vote on it today. Any Congress person who votes for this bill and claims to know what is in it, is an outright liar.

[phil4eagle]

Mighty, you're right.She doesn't do a good enough job explaining why we should stop the bill. So I will attempt to explain why this bill will further destroy the dollar. We must understand that it isnt a stimulis bill, that's just the title. If Bills actually did what their titles said we would have ended criminality, starvation,poverty & americans would have the ability to fly. It is a spending bill, more properly titled. We are in this mess because of overspending. Spending more, is insanity.

Republican women are the smartest and the hottest. Dems look like trailer park trolls!

[sandinista138]

How do you retards feel a year later after every major RELIABLE economist has agreed that the stimulus worked???

[nefhead]

Fuck off you stupid Bimbo, what Moron ever gave women the right to vote, most don't have a fucking clue.

[PainlessTragedy]

Fuck our Ebay senate, if you want to change from the repblician chair to a Democrat Chair - You are a Turncoat and should not be allowed to help prevent Corruption of our Senate, House of Representatives Bills, HR Bills, ETC> They want to take away our Freedom, slow at first and before you can blink an EYE - it's gone, you are wake up under 100 Cameras. America turns into a Police State and Obama becomes a Slave Master, Congrats to black people you finally got your payback. ha

[Yakko77]

We didn't stop it but they (the Dems) own it with a couple exceptions but overall it's a Dem bill. Let them choke on it when it costs them their Congress seats... though we're going to have to suffer through the consequences as well I'm afraid.

[bertly71]

Too bad it was not stopped. We did make our point.

[biguglytrux]

as everyone can see, nw that the bill was passed, dems don't need even one republican vote to push thru the "change". they will continue to do this as "boldly and swiftly" as possible, right on til election day 2010. by that time, even if they lose power in congress, it will be too late to overturn all the change they put us through. so- don't go thinking that we'll fix their wagon, next election time. we'd better come up with something sooner than that, and it's not coming from old fart repubs

[BigTMan1]

"We" are not the "minority", Shelly, with all due respect. Poll after poll shows that the American public is opposed to these stimulus bills by large margins. Last fall, when the first bailout bill went before the Congress, something like 85-90 percent of the public opposed it. Dianne Feinstein notoriously went on the floor of the Senate and admitted that her constituents flooded her phones in opposition, but then said she'd vote for the bill anyway. We are the Majority. We are the People.

what people tend to forget, when companies "go down" they dont always disappear. a sufficiently large manufacturer (like a car assembly line) would get purchased for pennies, restructured, fat trimmed, and re-started pretty quickly. most of old workers would be rehired for very pragmatic reason - they dont need retraining. what will be lost is all the inefficiencies that caused the company to bankrupt. which is good news for everybody.
