Democrats call for massive econ stimulus plan

The United States needs a new economic stimulus plan that pumps billions of dollars into infrastructure projects and budget relief for cash-strapped state and local governments, Democratic lawmakers said on Sunday.

U.S. Rep. Barney Frank, chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, told ABC television he will put together an economic stimulus bill when Congress returns to Washington after the November 4 elections, while a key Republican said he would support an effort that "makes sense."

Webmaster's Commentary: 

(Ahem).

A small memo to Barney Frank, et al: our national debt stands at 10 trillion and change, and is climbing by the second.

Just where is the money for this stimulus package supposed to come from, thin air??
