Where I Pretend To Work

Can anyone explain these 2 Business / Economics Wall Street Journal articles?

Here are the titles and links: 1) that the economy beats wing, doubts about Obama Plan Mount http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123311521129023245.html 2) Public spending is no free lunch http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123258618204604599. html

What kind of explanation you're looking for? 1. At some level argue that the stimulus plan will not work because it is too small. They say is too small because the problem is very large. The other says it is too small, because the designers of the spending plan used a multiplier of 1.5 to calculate its size, but that was overly optimistic. Of course, the original proposal was a greater stimulus, but Congress opposed making a larger proposal would not have made sense anyway. And the administration has already said that it was a first step. But the fact of the matter is that the recovery plan can not work. There is no guarantee. It is the theoretical basis for her, but nobody has tried on such a scale before. But does anyone have a better suggestion (better both economically and politically acceptable way)? I have not heard one. 2. The Wall Street Journal has a direct interest in the attacks against the Obama administration and Democrats. On the one hand, they argued (and many Republican politicians) that the stimulus is too great and makes the government too big. At the same time, they are perfectly happy to complain that the Democratic proposal is bad because it is too small. Note that the play has been explicitly marked Barro an opinion rather than an article, and so did not seem well balanced. 3. One feature that seems to be characteristic much about the economy, it is not entrenched in the economy or logic. For example, even if Barro is right that the expenditure multiplier is greater than 1, does this mean for the stimulus as a whole, except that it is probably too small? In addition, in the end he said: "On the expenditure side, the main point is that we should not see massive public works programs that are not satisfactory point of view of cost-benefit analysis. "Talky conclusions about Wimpy. Everything I heard about the recovery plan is on investment in infrastructure that does not "pass muster in terms of cost-benefit analysis." Thus, the whole is seems to be a attack without real substance. Who is a bit strange for a renowned economist Barro: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Barro But what makes it even stranger is that his facts are generally true. It is fair to the attack and the proposed solutions that do not mesh. It attacks a straw man.
