So what is the unemployment rate now? How well is Obammunism working?

WHTR News reports:

President Obama’s $787 billion stimulus bill to revive the economy is a staggering figure. So why then is there talk in Washington about a possible second stimulus package to jolt the American economy out of recession?

Economists say that only 10 percent of stimulus dollars have been spent and the president’s plan has been criticized for not creating enough jobs.

“You can’t justify it logically. You have to justify it politically and that’s what this comes down to. It’s political distribution of dollars,” said Matt Will, University of Indianapolis.

When the president signed the Recovery and Reinvestment Act into law in February, he said it would create new jobs. Yet unemployment now stands at almost 9.7 percent, the highest in over two decades.

When will voters learn that there is no way to stimulate an economy by spending? The right way to stimulate an economy is by creating jobs, by passing laws to encourage businesses to expand and hire more employees. For example, we could have spent 400 billion dollars and cut the employer portion of payroll taxes, so American workers would go on sale. The Democrat porkulus bills (1 and 2) did noting to create private sector jobs.

Remember, Democrats caused this recession and Republicans tried to stop them. Why should we trust Democrats to get us out of the mess they put us into?
