Figure somewhere around 95 million people will tune in for the big game today between two great manufacturing city teams, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers. Whether you're a Cheesehead or waving a "Terrible Towel", you'll see some great football today. But you will also see the handiwork of one of America's great manufacturers, Wilson. …See More

Pat Cleary commented on Bill Waddell's blog post The Republicans Just Don't Get it"Bill:

Unfortunately, many of the bill's investments were not front-loaded, which has hindered its effectiveness as an emergency stimulus. As John…"
David Alexander commented on Pat Cleary's blog post Open Thread: Is the Stimulus Working?"Fly in and out of China-back to the U.S. There is irony in the contrast between the two in terms of infrastructure. Forget the three clean and modern major airports in Beijing, Shanghai or Hong Kong, I'm talking about Jinan, Shenzhen, Zhuhai.…"
JOHN COLM commented on Pat Cleary's blog post Open Thread: Is the Stimulus Working?"The stimulus is working in places, but hasn't spurred the broader economic recovery.
