I propose an APRP.
American People Rescue Plan
Congress should cut a check of $10,000 (or vouchers) to every American over the age of 18 whose individual income is less than $100,000.
Since the TARP worked to bailout Wall Street, and the money has been paid back---now use those same funds to bail out main street.
These funds would be spent reducing credit card debt, make mortgage payments, buy automobiles, food, clothes, etc.
The economy would take off.
Also, as part of this plan, the military budget should be cut, soldiers brought home, and the money from the military budget should be spent on infrastructure and creating green jobs that cannot be outsourced.
APRP!

Handouts for all and gutting our military sounds like a real winner to me. :whatever:

This sounds like a free pony plan.

Sounds like business as usual from Dim leadership....

Please explain how any of those would make an economy "take off".
Credit card debt is money already spent in a sense as is a mortgage payment.
A new car can`t be bought for that amount so it would mean new debt.
Food is an ongoing thing and I suppose if everyone bought 10,000.00 worth of clothes there would be an impact on that market but of course it would be dry for a long time after.
They are just really really stupid.

American Death Spiral Pony Plan

green jobs that cannot be outsourced
Other than government jobs in office buildings without electricity or running water, what, pray tell, is such a job?

"Green" is synonymous with "bogus", unless you're talking about a color or a lack of experience.
-
Sounds like a bong induced idea to me.
-
All this would do is create another Cash for Clunkers - push everyone to make major purchases now, and in the process dry up the future market. Live for the moment - like every other Democrat idea.

Well, now, DUmbass, that sounds eerily familiar to what hussein was saying while he was running for hopey-changey. Except there was one minor problem - he doesn't give a **** about main street, or you, or any of the rest of the clowns at the DUmp.
Grow up.

To a democrat, an inconceivable windfall. A thousand dime bags.

Of course with the ensuing downsizing of DOD, that would add about half a million former military and civilian employees to the unemployment rolls, and giving every ten grand would in the end only add about ten grand to the the annualized CPI due to price inflation. Brilliant plan, DUmmie.

I've heard the theory proposed that downsizing the DOD is exactly what he does not want to do right now, as the Dems have been showing their usual disregard for the Constitution, and you'd have half a million unemployed added to the rolls--most of which know what the Constitution stands for, and they'd see that the actions of the Dems ain't it. Guess who could correct that--violently and finally?

Still, they are probably one of the most law-abiding and orderly parts of the population, I think things would have to break down to something on the order of 1919 Germany for anything like that to happen. Of course Imperial Germany went from being one of the most law-abiding and orderly places in Europe, to war vets banding into Freikorps to fight Communist militias in all-out infantry combat in the streets in just four years.

yup. What a great time to be a German.
Add to that the fact the Communists almost won, and it was only when the Conservatives got into bed with the ultra-right and the NAZIs did they (the communists) loose...

The Commies really started out with the upper hand, for instance founding a Bavarian Socialist 'Republic' when the monarchy lost its grip, which was really less of a republic and more of a Committee of Public Safety (ala France between the Revolution and Napoleon, and just about as red-handed), the bloody excesses of which drew the reaction from the Right.

Pretty pathetic ain't it, when a NAZI knows better than to to support Communism!?
Pretty much explains everything!

Nazi-Commie disagreement was pretty much semantics

not so much.
the NSDAP was clearly a Nationalist movement, even if it added Socialist to it's title. There was nothing in the NAZI creedo to suggest that they would ever attempt to export their philosophy to the world. Germany was to be master of the entire place, everyone else would bow down before them.
There was plenty that was similar, but in fundamentals? Nope...not at all.

Yep! If you were not blond and blue eyed, they weren't going to share, period!
