9. While the stimulus didn't meet administration expectations.
I think it was underestimated how deep the economic recession was. And yes, you are certainly right that the ARRA was riddled with far too many tax cuts and far too small on the actual job-building aspects of the stimulus. But it was clearly successful, and did help create jobs and grow the GDP.
