Fast or Right?

We seem to be in a headlong rush just to "do something" rather than making sure what we are doing is right. The long term consequences of what is done will be felt for decades. Stimulus does not just mean "spend" Mr. President. It means that we put forethought and purpose into the things that are done so that those deserving Americans can get jobs and relief quickly. How much difference "really" is there between pork projects and bonuses paid to executives. Admittedly, giving bailout money to executives who have been running failing businesses is ludicrous. But so is bailing out people who took on mortgages they knew they couldn't afford. It does seem to matter whose "ox is getting gored". We should help those that through no fault of their own find themselves in dire straights, however bailing out companies and people who have their handout because of a sense on entitlement is throwing good money after bad and is not what America needs now to bring us back to prosperity.
