Monday, 19 January 2009 Unfortunately one of the biggest fallacies of infrastructure stimulus is that this will give new jobs to the jobless and they will then buy products thus creating a demand for these products and the manufacture will then hire more poeple to make these products so on and so on. But, the truth is the unionized construction industry is a tough job to get in good times and will already have all the man power it needs to build these road now. If someone is out of work this will not be a benefit. Also it takes years to complete land surveys, design, engineering, contract letting and purchasing of land.

As anyone can see using infrastructure building as a economic stimulus is only for political apperence as it will have NO affect on the economy or for that fact adding any additional ( non road building industry ) jobs. This is why when voting for a President you should not vote for a lawyer who has no idea of how to run a business but has only the skills to manipulate the thoughts of others to accommodate the position of his client. Economic matters are better left to the MBA's who know how to grow the economies of large companies, of which the US government is the largest.

Another fallacy is in the welfare portion of Obama's so called stimulus package is it's ability to stimulate any economic activity. Also his deceitfulness in calling this a tax cut which is a compete lie. This welfare check seems to be going to people who's income level is low enough that they don't pay federal income tax , yet he plans on giving them thousands of dollars in the form of a welfare check ? or to clarify this using Democrat / Socialist  decorated words is " tax credit " which means " the using of the tax system to issue welfare payments.

Now this seems like a kind thing to do and helping the poor is something that each community should be doing every day privately through charities that lifts up nthe needy, but not with the nations tax money which is needed to promote growth in the economy for all. The kind of things that us families at this tax bracket buy won't stimulate much in this country. This bracket won't buy new cars ( no help to UAW) nor buy homes ( no help to the housing industry or banks ), nor buy new furniture, nor buy new appliances, nor buy new anything but food ,cigarettes, and the essentials which are usually the lower priced imported versions of each. As you can see No REAL New American Jobs can come from it.

The proven method of stimulus is to get the money into the hands of the people who know how to turn a $100.00 bill into a billion dollar business employing thousands of people making things that people need to buy. This talented persons incentive for doing this is usually to get rich as anyone who gives jobs to thousands of people should be. They deserve it.  BUT, the Democrat / Socialist ,who have nothing but the goal of taking-over our private industry so they can control the peoples freedom, have been successful in using propaganda to demonize these entrepreneurs ,our nations greatest resource in job creation and now have began their completion of their socialist take over. For those who don't watch CSPAN (that televises both the house and the senate when in session ) they now take openly about.  I know some of you think this is politics and over reaction but it's true.

You see their are two basic types of people when it comes to earning an income. There is those of us who are satisfied with working for someone else and walking away with a pay check ( as I do now ) and free and clear of the responsibilities of making a job providing enterprise successful and then there is those of who will hock everything they have and stick their necks out to create a job producing enterprise that provides our families income to live and our nation's income through taxes paid by their employees.

I post this serious question worthy of your deepest consideration. Who's worthy of greater honor ; The one who gives a job ? or, The one who take a job ?

For the sake of our nation we need to stimulate those who give jobs so people can have jobs. Not give money to the lowest spending consumers in the country to spend on foreign goods.  No rocket science here, just simple common sense.
