Which is? Has he even came up with a plan instead of his vague general talk of how his path is better, yet doesn't offer a plan?[/quote]

Well if you would get away from Yahoo and Media Matters for your news source you would see he has a 59 point plan. Wasn't it Obama and the need for a trillion dollar stimulas to fix this that's more money dumped down the drain.

How about those employment numbers going south AGAIN.[/quote]

So how many companies that were bailed out have paid back the money?

The employment #s are going south becuase of Congress hell Ray Charles can see that.

As far as I know we bailed out the banks and few car companies. That was not my point. He has loaned several green companies millions and millions of dollars and they have gone under. Even his own staff had thrown up red flags about loaning some of the companies money but he ignored them at tax payers expense.

Also please explain what congress has done or has not done thats causing employment #s to go south?

Yeah bad choice of words there the numbers went north(in this case)I don't mind loaning money to the "green energy Co's" we need to invest in this for the future no doubt,I know it didn't work out .I was under the impression that most of the car companys have paid back part of the loans ...I believe it is in the 50% range and the banks ..well some have paid back almost all ,AIG did about 2 weeks ago.By Congress fighting Obama on everything it is they that are sending unemployment numbers through the roof.

this is hysterical. you make it sound like Hertz, Davis, and Enterprise rent a car. these companies employ 10s- 1000s of Americans. to let them go by the wayside would have been ridiculous

[quote=Giantone;923751]So how many companies that were bailed out have paid back the money?[/quote]Here's one account. Basically they're saying the bailouts are currently around: OUTFLOWS: $602 billion, INFLOWS: $390 billion.

[URL="http://projects.propublica.org/bailout/list/refunds"]LINK[/URL]

Keep in mind, how some money was paid back is interesting. It's no coincidence that banks which shuffle around money anyways, could "pay back" the bailout faster. And GM actually "paid back" some bailout money with other bailout money. [URL="http://www.forbes.com/2010/04/23/general-motors-economy-bailout-opinions-columnists-shikha-dalmia.html"]LINK[/URL]. The GM stock bought is supposed to be sold by the government when it reaches value enough to pay back the original "loan", which won't happen until/if the stock basically doubles in value outside of inflation and interest.
