  1. Effectiveness:The political process robbed the stimulus of its maximum possible effectiveness.
  2. Effectiveness:The political process robbed the stimulus of its maximum possible effectiveness.
  3. http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/get-file.php?report=global&file=map-blended-mntp&year=2009&month=7&ext=gif
  4. Current ratio of vehicles registration to new vehicles sales puts the fleet replacement at 25 years. The average is normally 10-15 years. So either people will return to buying vehicles or the number of registered vehicles will decline.
  5. Recessions are probably a necessary part of any economic system. They are an opportunity to reorganize, rethink, and refocus.
  6. People become healthier…smoke less, drink less, drive less.
  7. http://www.businessweek.com/the_thread/economicsunbound/archives/2009/09/where_are_healt.html
  8. Elasticity estimates suggest for each additional 1% of income our health related expenditures increase by 1.6%. Part of this is through technological advances that reduce our expenditures of other things. For example, look at how the percentage of income spent on food has fallen.
  9. As much as 53 Trillion dollars. 34 trillion for medicare (of which about 8 trillion is prescription drugs) and the rest social security.
