Governors Reaction to Stimulus Plan

The Governor's from the nation gathered Saturday to welcome money heading their way, butof course some complained that it was not enough to improve the fiscal crisis in their states.

Those that agreed, said that it was a start in the right direction, while another complained that they were doing all the "heavy lifting" they were still making budget cuts and changes in their programs.

What these Governor's need to realize is that this crisis did not happen over night. It took years for this crisis to happen and it will take years for the country to have some economic stability. This crisis was starting way before President Obama took office.

What these Governor's should be thinking about is how to best serve their states with whatever monies they get, see where they can try and create jobs, whether is infrastruce, education, healthcare, etc.

President Obama can't solve everybody's fiscal problems, he is trying to give a boost to each state and it is up to them to spend the money wisely.
