Okay so word on the financial circuit today is that politicians are already testing the waters to see what the response would be on a 2ND round of stimuli (really 3rd if you count Bushes 145 or so Billion but who's counting). They are citing the need for this based on the failure of the administration to get the economy to turn the corner.
Before I even go "there". Are they telling us that 787 Billion has been spent? Where did all that money go?
True story: I lost $2000 cash a few years back. it was in a bank envelope and I think I hid it or someone stole it. Regardless, I TORE MY HOUSE UP!.........every book, every page, every cereal box, figurine, I even emptied the entire refrigerator(thought maybe I got hungry while in the middle of my hiding process and set it down.....). Anyway, I felt sick to my stomach for about 2 months. No exaggeration......2 full months! I can't even imagine how I would feel losing 787 Billion. If there was an actual person that was accountable for that money they would have exploded like the guy from the "I won the corvette" commercial a few years back. He/she would be in an indescribable amount of pain from lost and wasted stimuli. Thank the good lord our politicians didn't feel the need to assign someone to have that kind of accountability! Good thinking guys/gals.
In all fairness lets say they can account for all but 1 Billion. Does anyone reading this even know what it is like to have a Billion? (if you answered "yes"to this question I know some fine pieces of real estate, we should talk) A Billion..........If you haven't noticed I capitalize the word Billion in this blog involuntarily.........it is that important, incomprehensible, and ridiculously large of a number. But hey.........it's only money, fire up the printer......what's the worst that could happen.........China only owns us on Paper.....
