In a recent obligatory and inconsequential gallup poll, it was shown that a significant portion of the US population has their doubts about a 900 billion dollar stimulus package devoted to social and infrastructural spending. They did not on the other hand, vote against 1 trillion dollars in military spending devoted to raytheon, boeing and lockheed martin, as there was no inconsequential poll conducted for this. According to corporate news, people only doubt the potential of the stimulus package (their money) that wasnt directly handed over to their elusive elite like the first string of bailouts totalling 8.5 trillion. The average person has been said to be skeptical of the only stimulus package that was intended for them, but not at all interested as to where wall street and the federal reserve  has spent trillions in 'bail out' relief. This story was published on Fox News and was chalk full of intellectuasl misnomers with headlines such as "are we becoming socialist" implying whats been occuring around the world with regards to countries bailing themselves out in the last 6 months as socialism, and in the process making it look reallly bad! Now that the bankers have got their buck, this new contraversy will be made the front page issue, and will channel all attention away from the rich giving money to themselves directly (as with banker bailout) onto giving it to themselves indirectly (like the social stimulus package). Republicans persist in their claim that tax cuts are a better way to get people buying more shit, but just tax cuts for the rich... While Democrats think the best way to preserve the status quo is to print more money... Americans await more meaningless polls the results of which are expected to be disregarded entirely.

In a related story banks have finally committed billions to lending now that the money has been given to them by the people they will yet again lend it back to... All so we can continue to live in this economic fantasy that constant market growth is sustainable, just as long as we drive fuel efficient vehicles and use headache inducing lightbulbs and are always in debt!!! The fact that the US debt is twice the global GDP isnt expected to make headlines anytimes soon!

In addition Obama has imposed an executive pay limit to bailout recipients. CEO's whose companies were recipients of bailouts will only be able to make 500,000 dollars (starting now). Because unlike you and me, being paid half a million a year to lend people their own money is normal, and CEO's must be able to at least maintain their lavish lifestyles so they continue to feel motivated enough to continue... fking us all over!

Obama is considering a 1 trillion dollar 'stimulus plan'. It will include an initial tax cut, and an infusion of funds to develop infrastructure, education etc. Billions of dumbfk twats abroad are trained to think that any thing to do with funding public services are 'stimulus' based whereas 'taxes' are spent on wars and bankers which make our money. Enjoy another year of blissful idiocy you hopeless abusers of this one infinitesimally rare chance at evolving as a organic life form.

The total bail out money (tax payer) is said to now have topped 7.5 trillion dollars equaling roughly 20,000 for each American citizen (babies included)… Meanwhile the Citigroup bank (that will soon also collapse) gets a 360 billion in secured loans… According to Bloomberg Magazine the US government is prepared to provide 7.5 trillion on behalf of American tax payers. The pledges amount to half the value of everything produced in the US last year. Obama proposes 500 billion to rebuild roads, bridges, modernize schools and develop alternative sources of energy and efficient cars, while 7000 billion to go to maintaining the status quo. Citigroup in a drive to get even more funds accurately predicts civil disorder in 2009 as a result of their own greed.
