The era of "pork" and "entitlements" should be OVER, but from what has been made public, Obama's "STIMULUS PACKAGE" contains a huge amount of "PORK" and much of it seems downright frivolous and absurd... like TATTOO REMOVAL??? Why should American taxpayers pay for the removal of tattoos on some nitwit who thought tattoos made him or her look "cool"?! The same question could be asked about MUCH in the Stimulus Pkg. Further, some of the most obviously overdue expenditures have not been mentioned at all--like updating & expanding U.S.D.A. and F.D.A. safety inspection programs. And the list goes on...

He did not have to place so much emphasis on doom and gloom. But he does, and business leaders react by laying off thousands.
