U-Bob, you're a smart enough guy to know that I could find various proofs for my stimulus based solution as well. It really doesn't help anymore going back and forth IMHO. We are dealing with real world problems, not debate club back and forth. Even the cause of the great depression is still under debate despite nearly a century of study. A quick google search will turn up opinions that say we didn't spend enough, and others that say we spent too much.
So what's you're solution? I'm not arguing with you or even contradicting you, I'm just curious what other alternatives there are for ending the catch 22 of Americans not spending, and companies not hiring.
American companies have ZERO interest in investing in America right now, so that leaves the government to kick start things. There is simply nobody else who will do it. No tax breaks and no incentive will cause companies to invest in America and it's simply because they don't have to, they are getting better returns elsewhere around the world. There is nothing left we can do to entice business to hire Americans.
