Of COURSE Republicans do not like the infrastructure stimulous route. They wanted bigger tax breaks for Bernie Madoff and every other wizard at Bear, Lehman, Merrill, Goldman and AIG instead, and people like Jimmie are still trying to sell you that snake oil. Even today, right here at USNWR.

Happy that Ben wants to be sure you 1) Can't get a return that way?, and 2) Face long-term structural erosion of your dollar's value because the FED is printing non-existent money to compete with your real money?
