your simplified (and regurgitated) semi analysis of what decmocrats do when in power belongs in the politics forum where it can be properly defunked.... trickle down economics is partially what got us here... giving tax cuts to the wealthy and "hoping" that it tricles down to the rest of the population DOES NOT WORK... it inevitably leads to the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer...
also, not only is Obama a "pretty smart guy" but he's a hell of a lot smarter than 99% of the population (including you and I), and even he gets economic advise from folks that are "smarter" than he is... so coming to his senses probably isn't going to happen.. he's already there!
also, tax break, stimulus package and stimulus checks are NOT the same thing... if you've read the proposed stimulus package, it DOESN"T call for a blank stimulus check to be issued to individuals, but merely a tax break giving folks about and extra $20-$30 on each check (on average) spread out over the next few years...
Now back to the question at hand...NO, save your money

He is a pretty smart guy so I do think he will come to his senses though and realize that taking money from one group of people and giving it to another group of people does not create new wealth and does not improve the long term health of an economic system.
