Yes, Mr. Krugman, Keynesian, and Master of the Liberal posterior pucker is at it again, calling for MORE stimulus to follow in the wake of the failure of the first stimulus to stimulate anything other than Public Sector Union payrolls.
Here is the problem, Paul. Government can't stimulate!
Why, you say? Because they OWN nothing! before the government can spend anything, it must take it from the people. Like the Mafia, the government takes it's cut, and passes the balance along to the biggest contributor!
So if the government wants to spend a trillion dollars, it must either; Raise it in taxes, Borrow it, or print it! but all of these options entails the American taxpayer footing the bill, and that bill is an inherent drain on the economy. The reason that government jobs are not economic expansion is simple, those jobs are being paid for by the taxpayer, resulting in a larger budget to cover the new employees. The more government spends, the more it takes, further slowing the economy.
Paul, I know you are supposed to be an economist, but this is simple economics 101, did you miss that class?
