Bush spent $850B in 2008 on his recovery programs. Obama's will cost $787B over ten years.

Obama's plan:

$288B in tax cuts, for both individuals and businesses.
$155B to sure up health care (including Medicaid, Veterans Health, COBRA, etc)
$100B in education spending so that schools didn't have to fire all of the teachers.
$82B in low-income help, like unemployment insurance, social security, vocational training, etc.

I say he should have let the economy collapse. Let all of the banks and businesses fail, and have unemployment rise to 100%. That would have been the better choice.
