(12,448 posts)Out here, the crazies don't want the evil government to do anything. They don't know or don't care that the city is falling apart around them. They don't know or care that crime is rising, that people with advanced degrees and years of experience are working in fast food, landscaping, temporary labor, etc. for minimum wage just trying to survive another week. And they don't know or care that the entirety of our part of that so-called stimulus was sucked up by the rich.
It's especially ironic because this city only exists because of the real stimulus that real Democrats passed 80 years ago to build Boulder (Hoover) Dam and the Boulder highway.
So you see, I have never met a single Reich-winger who was bitching about how inadequate or pork filled the Stimulus package was. Pray tell, where do hear them? Or is it simply that you cannot hear any criticism of the Great and Powerful, yet remarkably helpless, O?
