The Stimulus Bill Is Too Large To Keep Track Of

The stimulus bill passed a while back and some people are still under the impression that they are going to personally profit from it. Unless you are able to get a new job that comes directly out of the stimulus bill, the ordinary man on the street is going to see none of this money that is being thrown around so freely by the government.

The bureaucrats see these companies as being too big and too important to fail so we must all pay for their mistakes. If you have made a mistake, it is unlikely the government will bail you out. But if you are a big company, you get a free pass over and over. Obama inherited a big financial problem it is true. This would be a huge challenge for any President but one has to wonder whether he is just making the problem worse.

This is upsetting to many as those who have played by the rules and run their companies responsibly will be paying for the mistakes of others. We will all be paying for the incompetence of these companies that did not plan well for the future and the changing economy. In the free market capitalist society we live in, wouldnt it be better to just let these companies fail like they are supposed to?

What organizations are going to be the recipients of the Obama government grants that he and the government are giving out? Will these grants and stimulus money continue to go to the same colleges and organizations that have been getting them the past eight years or will new ones get them.

It seems that everyone is in line for some of this money except individuals who might really need it. Some people are getting assistance with lower mortgage payments but there doesnt seem to be many ways for the common person to benefit. People all over the country are hurting financially and it might be nice if they could get a piece of the handouts.
