Conservatives versus the GOP

If the stimulus money was all spent on infrastructure, how does that not keep the money in circulation. When people are given jobs, that money circulates several times. I would like to see lesson prove her point that the economy would have collapsed without the stimulus money. There are a lot of smart people who thought the banks should have been allowed to fail and a lot of smart people who thought the stimulus and bailouts were good. the majority of americans now do not favor the stimulus.

And how am I going to prove that point any more than you can prove your point that the economy would have been better served had the banks been allowed to fail? We're both dependent on the opinions of the experts. If the majority of people don't agree with the stimulus then that just shows their ignorance...just my opinion (based on the opinions of "my" experts)...:)

oh, the people who chose to believe a different expert than you are ignorant? My point was, you made your statement about bush and obama saving the financial security of this country as a statement of fact. It is an opinion based on your beliefs and person experience.

We can't both be right can we...so I choose to think that I am right. I expect you think you are right. So let us agree that we each have opinions that are different.

well now we agree. unless you still think i am ignorant for disagreeing with you.
