Why Stimulus Packages Are Not Working

LarrWayne Po
Who is someone trying to kid, here? What kind of myth is this? Many dream of having a stack of hundreds as high as the ceiling, so they won't have to get up and work tomorrow. Their motivation to get up and survive has been neutered.

However, let's hear their plea:

We want money
So we can hire employees
And make our economy grow.
That's all she wrote.

That's all she wrote because
My secretary insisted
She is an important CEO,
And you know how that goes,
I'm sure.

What's the cure?
A million dollar bonus check,
The word is out.
Everybody wants one now.
Hush money
Just has a new name these days.
Give us a break.

My CEO, alias secretary,
Is out of town
And might be back next month
After the celebration party of fun
Is out of her system.

Is there a gimmick?
What gimmick?
There is none.
The word is mum.

    The stimulus package didn't help the ordinary worker! But we are all certainly paying for it!

    It is like ten blind men feeling an elephant trying to make out what it really is! Five top economists having ten opinions between them! Written with passion, LarrWayne - siva

    Real stimulus: Distribute the 'bailout' funds directly to the people who are losing their jobs and homes!

    I agree...the only thing that needs stimuli is the brains of those in Congress for they are not using their nogans.
