Pelosi To Progressives, Pundits: Don't Blame Us For Senate's Shortcomings
Thursday, October 14, 2010
The massive stimulus bill that Obama should have been pushed through, that should have happened before Obama handed out TARP2 (which he did with no conditions, yet), didn't happen because it was never Obama's intention to be anything but a pro-corporate, anti-populist president.
That economic meltdown was the means for achieving everything that real Democrats have been unable to do for the last 20 years. A real stimulus would have solved every last problem we're facing today. It should have had WPA-type programs, money for public works projects to rebuild America's infrastructure on all fronts, from roads, bridges, high-speed rail, an energy renaissance ala the Manhattan project (another broken promise by Obama) and a building of that new energy grid (& communications) infrastructure across the US, along with massive infusion into SMART communities (residential/business/agricultural) ending suburban sprawl, high tech and more.
