I think MOST economists disagree and believe we had to spend. Of course there were a few who disagreed. But most of them said we needed to spend.
The people I'm referring to, I'm trying to remember, I think one of them was Donnie Deutsch, and I believe the other one was Ken Lewis, CEO of Bank of America. It was some bank CEO anyway. I'm trying to remember who else. I watch CNBC sometimes, and I watch Morning Joe, and sometimes they have financial people on there, so it was one of those two places where I heard it, by more than one person. I wish I had written it down so I could remember. I've never had anyone question my sources the way you do.
