Being Informed

The current economic recession has taken its toll on America and from what it seems will continue until the nation is able to spend again. While many conservatives believe that ‘waiting it out’ with minimal government intervention is the best solution to this crisis, liberals disagree and say that the federal government should step in and promote spending to open up new jobs. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act passed by President Obama last month was created to do just that. With much of the $787 billion dedicated to spending, the employment opportunities created by the bill is predicted to set a foundation for economic growth where in the future will sustain employment.

Now the real purpose of me blogging about this bill again is to provide this link: www.recovery.gov . This the official website of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. It will show you where all your precious tax money is being invested. It's important that the public is aware of the current situation yet assured that something is being done to remedy it. Check it out, it's your right to know.
