Your words, not one mention of the CBO.
Please share which of the worlds independent economists you are referencing, 999 out of 1000 is a bold claim and should be easy to back up. It is time for you to actually defend one of your statements, or continue to just move the argument away from your actual words to some other made up version inside your head. Either way it is great theater for the rest of us.
You haven't posted one economist that, in 2012, disagrees that the stimulus worked, by arguing against the measurable facts of job creation and GDP growth.

Not one.

Okay - I'll be as shallow and superficial as you:
