Question of the Week (QOW) - Why is this economic stimulus plan proposed by President Obama receiving so much criticism among some Democrats and Republicans in Congress? What should our elected officials do in order to help the American people get back on the right track to recovering from this recession?
At this very moment due to the economic crisis, everybody is leaning on Obama for support. The first stimulus by Bush did not work so people are hoping that with a new president maybe we have a chance to turn the economy around. The stimulus in my opinion sounds good, hopefully everyone is able to keep track of spendings. And hopefully people spend their money wisely. For example people should not buy houses that they can not pay off, maybe it looks good at the time, but people need to think if they are able to pay it off in the long run.
