Vizualizing a Trillion Dollars - No Stimulus Package Blog

From the comments section of an article I posted to Newsvine here:

A stack of thousand dollar bills four inches high is a million dollars. One million dollars.

One billion dollars is a stack of one thousand dollar bills 4000 inches tall or 333 1/3 feet high!

Consider the Obama/Pelosi/Reid/democrat stimulus/debt and Recovery Act of 2009. Round off to one trillion dollars. That is a stack of one thousand dollar bills four million inches tall or 63.1313 miles high!

--------------------

From Senator Mitch McConnell: “If you started spending the day that Jesus was born and you spend a million dollars every single day, you still wouldn't have spent a trillion dollars.”

Thomas Jefferson Chimes in Once More on the Stimulus Package - No Stimulus Package Blog

"To preserve our independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. If we run into such debts, we (will then) be taxed in our meat and our drink, in our necessities and in our comforts, in our labor and in our amusements. If we can prevent the government from wasting the labor of the people under the pretense of caring for them, they (will) be happy." - Thomas Jefferson, Third President of the United States/Author of the Declaration of Independence, 1791

Thanks for the quote to Michael Reagan, son of the late President Ronald Reagan. Call your Senators and Representative and demand that they vote NO on the stimulus package. (202) 224-3121

CBO Projects Stimulus Will Do Long-Term Harm to GDP - No Stimulus Package Blog

As the Washington Times reports here, the Congressional Budget Office on Wednesday declared that President Obama and the Congressional Democrats' "stimulus" package will cause long-term harm to our nation's output and will have little impact on job growth.

With polls showing a majority of Americans (and growing) against this bill, what will it take for Congress and the President to put the brakes on? Jamming their phone lines and email inboxes with your discontent!

Call your Senators and Representative and demand that they vote NO on the current "stimulus" plan and move to a better bill that creates long-term job growth and digs us out through the free market. (202) 224-3121

Thomas Jefferson Weighs in on Stimulus - No Stimulus Package Blog

Amazingly, our third President and the author of the Declaration of Independence has come back from the dead to inveigh against President Obama's "stimulus" package. Okay, Jefferson isn't really back from the dead but his words still ring true:

"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."

Thanks to Ericka Anderson of TownHall.com for digging up that quote.

How Government Prolonged the Depression - No Stimulus Package Blog

Many credit New Deal policies with pulling the U.S. out of the Great Depression. However, FDR's plan was a mixed bag which in many cases prolonged the Great Depression.

Check out this great Wall Street Journal article by University of Pennsylvania professor of economics Harold Cole and UCLA professor of economics Lee Ohanian.

CNBC's Lawrence Kudlow says Shelve the Stimulus - No Stimulus Package Blog

Check out this great article by CNBC host Lawrence Kudlow on the train wreck that is the stimulus package that passed the House of Reps. and which continues to be pushed by President Barrack "I Won" Obama. As Kudlow points out, even Clinton economist Alice Rivlin inveighed against the trillion+ dollar monstrosity that Pelosi and friends passed with glee.

A 40-Year Wish List - No Stimulus Package Blog

Check out this great Wall Street Journal article on President Obama's proposed "stimulus" plan. Again, if Dems would cut the pork (or even most of it), they have a much better chance of winning GOP votes. Check out some of the "stimulus" that passed the House vote:

- Less than $30 billion for highway improvements
- $600,000,000 for the federal government to buy new cars (not for you and me)
- $325,000,000 for STD prevention
- $150,000,000 to insure farmers against honeybee damage
- $81,000,000,000 for Medicaid
- $36,000,000,000 for unemployment benefits
- $20,000,000,000 for food stamps
- $1,000,000,000+ for the Department of Health and Human Services to study alternative medical treatments

Again, this is supposed to be a STIMULUS package. Perhaps most if not all of the money should go to jobs creation and incentivizing businesses and individuals to start spending again?!?

Call your Senators and Representative and tell them to vote NO on the current "stimulus" plan. (202) 224-3121

Harvard Economist Decries Stimulus Package - No Stimulus Package Blog

Check out this great editorial in today's Washington Post from Harvard professor Martin Feldstein. As he highlights, the current "stimulus" package is laden with projects that will likely take years to get off the ground and includes entitlements that will be extraordinarily difficult to rescind.

Call your Senators and Representative and tell them to vote NO on the final version of President Obama's stimulus plan. (202) 224-3121

House Passes Obama Plan Without a Single GOP Vote - No Stimulus Package Blog

Yesterday the U.S. House of Representatives passed President Obama's $800,000,000,000+ "stimulus" package without a single Republican vote. In fact, as one GOPer quipped, the only bipartisanship was in opposition to the bill which Democratic Rep. Frank Kratovil bluntly derided as "wasteful spending."

Of course, as Obama aides have noted, the real test will come when the bill leaves conference and comes up for a final Congressional vote. Call your Senators and Representative today and demand that they vote NO on the final version of this "stimulus" package. (202) 224-3121
