Hey what's with the stimulus?

You may be wondering, like me, where is all the stimulus money we are hearing is doing such a great job for our recovery? How much is spent and how much is left? Why do we keep hearing about spending billions more on what should be already happening? Well I looked at Recovery.org to learn that $202 Billion has been "awarded" and of that, $62 Billion was "received" since it was passed until now. Knowing that the total in the stimulus pile was $787 Billion, why would we need more multi-billion dollar spending bills for stimulation? According to Recovery.org the lions share, $585 Billion is still not "awarded" so it is not stimulating. Also $140 Billion of what has been "awarded" has not been "received" so it too is still not stimulating. So if you are thinking these people want to stimulate our economy, why do you think they only let out $62 Billion so far? Why do you think they are talking about other jobs bills even though they are still not stimulating with $725 Billion already passed over 16 months later? Something is not right. They care, they are working hard on this recovery, and according to them it is working as planned with only 8% of the funds "received".
