Someone Want To Call Steve Kagen About This

From Badger Blogger.
"“A top White House economist says spending from the $787 billion economic stimulus has already had its biggest impact on economic growth and will likely not contribute to significant expansion next year.

Christina Romer, the chair of President Barack Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers, said Thursday that the $194 billion already spent gave a jolt to the economy that contributed to growth in the second and third quarters of the year. She told a congressional panel that by the middle of next year, the impact of the stimulus will level off. Romer said spending so far has saved or created 600,000 to 1.5 million jobs but warned that unemployment will remain high, above 9.5 percent, through the end of 2010.”" Badger Blogger
9.5% unemployment through the end of 2010? People of the 8th district, wake up here!
Where did all this money go? Steve, where are the jobs? Who's going to pay for this?


In case the media doesn't have his number. Bet Kagen doesn't answer the phone.
Hey, that would be a great ad spot.
