They're Cavemen, all of them:Per Republican House Minority Leader, John Boehner, (R-OH): "US President Barack Obama should veto a 410-billion-dollar spending bill and work to freeze government outlays for the rest of the year."
It´s interesting that this was also President Herbert Hoover's failed solution to the Great Depression in 1930. He actually did it and it failed because it took a major source of spending out of the economy which tanked it even further.
The Republicans keep saying that the private small businesses should be doing the spending, but they fail to state where these organizations should get the financing needed to support that spending and to get the economy "jump-started".
In fact, the initial focus of the proposed government spending is for generating private industry jobs by spending on infrastructure projects that small businesses can perform.
Minority Leader Boehner also said that last month´s announced US unemployment rate surge to 8.1 percent, with 651,000 jobs lost in February, "Demanded austerity from Washington at a time when Americans are tightening their belts."
