Where Fun Comes to Die

Courtesy of the Washington Post, a great breakdown of how the stimulus money would be spent.  Interestingly, although some have complained that Republicans are being extremely partisan in not supporting the package, compromises appear to have trended to more spending and fewer tax cuts.  Obama’s own goal of having 40% of the money be immediately injected into the economy via tax cuts has dwindled to 22% with the peak of stimulus injection not occurring until 2010.  This stimulus proposal also misses the administration’s goal of having 75% of the money spent by September 30, 2010.
