NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Big money often spurs big battles. A month after President Obama signed the $787 billion economic stimulus law, governors and state lawmakers are already fighting with Washington and each other about putting the money to use.

At least two governors are asking the White House for special consideration in applying the funds meant to shore up state budgets.

In light of this latest development, here's my question to you:-

What do you think about some states refusing to take the stimulus money?
