Paul votes against economic stimulus package Bob Cusack Most Washington politicians can’t wait until constituents cash in their tax rebates from the economic stimulus measure that is working its way through the Senate. White House hopeful Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), however, is not your average politician. The stimulus package passed the House 385-35 Tuesday, with Paul going against the grain — yet again. Paul stressed this week he is in favor of taxpayers getting some of their money back, but added that “temporary tax cuts and one-time rebates will not ‘fix’ the economy.... Sending out checks and cutting interest rates yet again is merely a shot in the arm when in actuality, the economy needs major surgery.”
