It was not only a short-term failure, but a long-term screwing of the taxpayer.

"According to analysis by CBO, the total cost of the Democrats’ failed “stimulus,” when interest on the money borrowed is included, totaled more than $1.1 trillion. CBO estimates the cost of the bill will reach $831 billion and interest on the debt for the bill will be at least $347 billion. And what did the American people get from more than $1 trillion in new borrowing for the stimulus? 42 consecutive months of unemployment above 8 percent."

It's worth recalling the promises made about the "stimulus."
