Further Stimulus

While I wouldn't bet against a second stimulus bill over the next few years, I think it's more likely that we'll get health care, education and infrastructure bills. Basically, more stimulus, but packaged with a different name and sold as direct solutions to individual lives, not just more jobs. Furthermore, look for plenty of the projects that never made it into the actual stimulus bill to get into the regular budget, a bill that can't be filibustered in the Senate.

What's in the bill is small local companies and it's a great start. Pity what the Republicans are doing to themselves for the sake of obstruction.

Maybe next bill we can help the veterans from Finland, like we helped the Phillipino veterans in the current bill.
