Would the country have been better off doing nothing rather than passing the Obama stimulus package? Obama's numbers say "yes."

It's hard to criticize an economic plan that hasn't had much time to take effect. However, when the proponents of the plan presented numbers that showed the effects of not implementing their plan compared to the results from their plan and those comparisons are within the present time frame, one must take note.

Innocent Bystanders presents a chart that compares the Obama Team's prediction of unemployment numbers with and without their Stimulus Plan to the actual unemployment numbers. It doesn't look good for the country or Team Obama. So far, it looks like we would have been better off doing nothing rather than passing the Obama plan. These are not Republican or opposition numbers, but Obama's numbers.
