So Mr. Obama is starting to unveil plans for a huge government "stimulus" package he'll seek to have passed early in his administration:
"Barack Obama will today unveil an economic team steeped in fighting crises and likely to push for an unprecedented government role in reviving growth and stabilizing the financial system."
An "unprecedented government role." Wow. I wonder how many of those who voted for Obama knew that this is what they'd be getting? My guess: not all of them. It will be interesting to see how the American people react to this.
From the same article, there's also this:
"Obama's program will be far larger than the $175 billion package of tax cuts and stepped-up government spending he proposed just a month ago."
Mr. Obama's campaign promises don't really seem to mean all that much these days, do they.
