The main thing the stimulus bill did was stimulate more debt, because it was used to pay off Obamaites and create, or save more government jobs that create even more debt. It gave Obama a slush fund to use in 2012 to try to stimulate votes by temporarily pumping it into wherever he thinks there are votes for him.
Shame on Congress for not understanding how such a program would be corupted and misused. Oh, what am I saying; they knew very well how it would go.
