SPRINGFIELD, Va., Feb 11 (Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on
Wednesday that Caterpillar Inc's (CAT.N) chief executive has said he
would be able to rehire some of the company's 20,000 laid-off workers if
Congress passes an $800 billion economic stimulus plan.


Who are they going to sell the equipment too?


Maybe park them on the Whitehouse lawn?


The heavy equipment market is flooded with off-lease, used stuff from
backhoes to Terex movers. That doesn't include new equipment they
can't sell. The CAT/Deere dealer up in Grafton can't keep his
mechanics busy enough for a 30 hour week.
