Pelosi: Stimulus Could Be Several Hundred Billion Dollars

MarketWatch Pulse WASHINGTON - Congress may need to consider an economic stimulus plan of several hundred billion dollars, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said Sunday. "Economists tell us we need something in the several-hundred-billion-dollar category," Pelosi said on CBS's "Face the Nation." But, she said, she and other lawmakers must balance any stimulus plan with fiscal responsibility. Any plan must both contain a tax cut and create jobs, she said.

Hmm. So a bail-out package of $800 billion dollars plus a "several hundred billion dollar stimulus"? And people still think Obama's gonna give them a tax cut? Where in the world are all these billions of dollars coming from, folks?

Oh, and since the previous stimulus did nothing for the economy, why dont we try it again and again and again?
