Kicking the economic can down the road

A fairly modest Obama economic stimulus program (less than half of Bush’s tax cuts for the rich and less than the cost of the Iraq war, combined with a befuddled-sounding TARP 2.0 rollout by Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, tend to support Paul Krugman’s analysis of where the Obama Administrastion is at right now.

And, he’s not alone. A McClatchy roundup of economists has others saying the same thing.
