no they don't..if that were true we'd be seeing one hell of a return....in the long run this is a permanent expansion of government spending...as was most of the "stimulus"....they offer a better sugar rush if you view the economy as static, reduction of tax burden and regulation on business matched by reductions in government spending would be a much better alternative....but...can't reduce government spending can we?...this is the RI version of economic stimulus...increase $$ to those dependant on government making them more permanently dependant on government and then expand casino gambling so that you can bus them there on payday as well as sell them cigarettes and booze and lottery tickets = "revenue"....viola!
