havint a "surplus" of money is a bad thing, especially if it is big since that money is not being used to keep the economy going.

You've been reading out of Ronnie's economics textbook, haven't you, Vinth? You're twisting word meanings.
If a company has a "surplus" of money, it means that they have probably made a profit. You know, revenue minus expenses? It's a snapshot of one instant in time when all the dust settles.
Companies pay out dividends to shareholders and reinvest the "surplus." The government pays out in the hundreds of little social programs, tax rebates, grants and so forth, and reinvests some and saves some for a rainy day or an emergency.
Or did you honestly think that there's someone deep under the White House laughing maniacally as he watches them unload yet another truckload of bags with big "$"s on them full of OUR money, where they will sit for all eternity, making everyone poorer overall? Because, of course, in Vince Land, the actual value of money is IN THE PAPER!
Anyways, here is my favourite president.
