...everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act - not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars...

In an address on the economy last Thursday, he said, “we need to act boldly and act now to reverse these cycles.” Regrettably, his proposed action, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Plan, falls well short of bold.
