| Stimulus' route By 2009-02-09 14:13:00 Lancaster New Era Editor, New Era: The other week, the House of Representatives passed President Obama's $819 billion economic-stimulus plan. I wonder if anyone, including our leaders in Washington, ever stopped to contemplate just what 819 billion borrowed dollars look like. |

OK, you have the visualization, four 12-foot lanes covered with thousand-dollar bills as far as the eye can see. Just how many miles of roadway would $819 billion cover? Would you believe 359.6 miles &tstr; the entire length of the Pennsylvania Turnpike!

where were you in 2001...
when bush asked for a tax cut that was much larger than this stimulus bill..
and then that president went on to help double the national debt in 8-years...
and now...
after major damage has been done..
your argument is to measure the physical size of a dollar bill and make irrational analogies?
if tax cuts and de-regulation worked...
how come we are in this mess?
