Stimulus has done little for Tennessee jobs

Jack Brumit says he isn't looking for a handout, but he is ready for some of the federal stimulus money to trickle down to regular folks like him who are looking for jobs.

Stimulas, What stimulas? Oh! you mean the pay back the unions and other supporters bill. Just making sure we were talking about the same thing

If we had ANYONE in the WH to actual thought about the everyday tax paying US citizens should have cared enough to have put their ft. down about just jumping to hand out $B's to so many places that we the average joe person knew the money was a total waste. We knew the auto dealers, so many banks and other places just crabbed our money, to just end up filing bankrupt anyway. Why not had enough sense to have given the tax $$$$ back to the tax payers who would have paid their house payments, car loan, credit cards, and bought from the retail stores. That would have been a win win situation. But instead the banks, auto dealers, credit cards got Billions and the tax payers are still with NOTHING!!!! Why hasn't ANYONE cared enough to put us first?????

I really worry about all the people who are drawing unemployment and it will be running out pretty soon, then they still haven't been able to get a job. What in the world will they do then?

Why hasn't OUR own gov. helped us? I'm afraid we still have a very very hard road ahead of us. I don't mean the CEO's, presidents, all the big fat cats on the hill. Our gov. leaders sure get their paychecks.

Not only do they get thier paychecks. After telling all of us to suck it up, make sacrifices, and "put skin in the game". They went ahead and gave THEMSELVES thier annual raise, equal to $4,900.00 this year. The classic do as I say not as I do ploy. I tell you these liberals are going to be the demise of this country.

If all the Leaches in Washington were not ripping off the USA with there big Pay Checks and all the other things tax payers are paying for the USA would not be in such a mess,Talking about a big step in economy do you realize how much that would help getting the mess the USA is in fixed? Ever time you turn around they are giving them selves a raise at our expense.
Thats one mistake the American people have made is not having control of White House spending and White House pay.
