Obama - The beginning

Well, I agree, somewhat, but I also think the stimulus, in the right form (spending), will keep the recession from going as deep and as long as it would if we do nothing, IF they spend enough. We are losing more than a half million jobs a month. Something needs to be done about that. The private sector isn't doing anything, they are cutting jobs. The only option left is government.

Why do so many people think government has no role in anything? Personally, I'm an anarchist, so I don't like a lot of government interference in my personal life. But IMHO, this is one of the roles government actually should play.
