Lefty Econ. Giant: Obama's Stimulus "Substituted For Thinking & Planning"

I've always had respect for Jeffrey Sachs, and in this amazing clip from Fareed Zakaria GPS on CNN, Mr. Sachs spends six minutes blasting Obama's failed--yet touted as successful--economic policy. Sachs, more or less, said that Obama's strategy to sell the "Stimulus" were rooted in untruths, ignorance, and wishful thinking. Sachs remarked: "It wasn't desperate or solvable." Sachs goes on to say this: "I was shocked they thought that adding to a trillion dollar deficit would work."
