facing the double dip? an economy where the economy shrinks again for six months? it s on the horizon. that will be a double dip. when you say the president is in a corner, he s kind of put himself in a box. his own corner. because he will not consider tax reductions. he would not consider tax measures and only look at spending. he can t. he cannot repudiate the first two years of his presidency. he can t roll back obama care. how could he do such a thing? at the same time, he can t double down with a big trillion dollar stimulus plan. he could have rolled back obama care in this whole debt discussion and could have acquiesced to get rid of the whole debt debate under the cover of the republicans demanding it. we ll watch your show at 9:20 on the fox business network. thanks, stu. now the other stories making news this morning. her body was found a quarter
americans. first of all when you hear him say shared sacrifice that is code word for tax the wealthy. okay. let s just be clear what that is. spending is more spending is silly as you pointed out we have had this trillion dollar stimulus plan. we haven t budged the needle at all on unemployment. government spends money inefficiently. you give to the government you get back $0.80 for a dollar. you give it to companies like apple or google you get five times as much. giving money to the government i come into dc every time i do the show on the 14th street bridge it s a year behind. that s the kind of efficiency you get with government spending. the president and speaker of the house are playing golf in a few weeks maybe they can come up with a solution.
people and other than the senses and and i m just explaining why the graphics showed the government jobs down and private jobs. there wasn t any plan to hire a lot of government workers, that was not on anyone s agenda anywhere. well, sarah, actually, it was, to keep a lot of the people off the unemployment roles. that was, where a lot of the money went. that was one of the goals, certainly, but another part of the not the same thing as higher. spurring job creation in the private somebodyiector, put together transportation programs largely to buy goods and services. the that was a minor part, it was $10 economy, 50 billion dollars in eric could do better than that. speaking of eric. quickly, it has nothing to do with the recovery we re seeing in the job market. nothing to do with the stimulus plan. including the tax cut. everything to do with the the bush tax cuts being extended, that s why, if you look it lines up perfectly.
