There really is no right answer to this question because if we all worked for the government and the government gets its money from the wealth created by private individuals then there would be no money. That in itself suggests that government should be limited, something our founding fathers understood but we have lost.

If you take a dollar from Peter in the private sector, waste 10% on the collection and disbursement of that dollar and then give Paul the 90 cents then the transaction was a net loss. Peter has one less dollar to spend and Paul only has 90 cents to spend. The economy loses and we all lose with this monumental waste of money called a stimulus plan.

But, we all know things are worse than we expected so when this one doesn't work, we'll need another one. Just like TARP didn't work so we needed this one. And so on and so on until the American people wake up and vote for someone who understands economics and history.
