And they were the same ones who stated that the stimulus would have a POSITIVE impact on the economy, too.
Sometimes you gotta go for the best 3 out of 5 coin tosses instead of one game of "Heads or Tails". I learned that in Econ 101. Or maybe it was Stat 101?
And it was taxpayers, who voiced the loudest opposition to corporate bailouts . . . and not just "fringe" elements, either.
Who listened?
