The federal government seems hell-bent on stopping stimulus spending on April 1st 2011 even if it means saddling municipalities with unpaid bills and hobbling the already weak recovery. The Irish experience may be instructive. Ireland is even more committed to stopping stimulus spending. Unfortunately the results are a fairly concerning 1.2% drop in GDP is just one month and bond markets demanding sky high risk premiums with the economic shrinking so rapidly.
The CCPA Monitor is the only place I know that one can go to for accurate and honest reporting on the state of the world. I would hate like hell to ever be without The CCPA Monitor; it would be like losing my sight and my hearing. I heartily recommend it to anybody who gives a damn about the condition of the world.
