I agree with some of the critics of this stimulus plan. There is not enough stimulus and too much spending on things that are not going to create immediate stimulus job creation. I agree with STD prevention, anti-smoking measures but it would have been far less controversial to just put them in a separate bill where they would easily get passed. Instead, for this bill, put more money into infrastructure and other helpful spending and subsidies that will create jobs.

The bill is going to likely pass along party lines and it is hardly going to be the Bi-Partisan Bill that should have defined Obama's first true victory.
