50. 'None of the proposals you mentioned will stimulate the economy' Even John McCain's

campaign economist disagrees with you.

But it's not your fault you are woefully misinformed. Media coverage of what economists of all political stripes think about the effect of fiscal sitmulus options has been an EPIC FAIL.

See the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office's' estimates of the likely range of possible effects of each million dollars spent on each option, at the link I gave you under point (7) of the lead-in for this thread. I'll give it to you again:
