This money isn't really to help us. It's to bribe us into thinking our government is trying to react.
It's a $150 Billion dollar package. To any one person it wont change a life, but spread over the millions of Americans it's going to, it will help the economy.

Are you just trying to find a reason to hate this? I mean, your logic seems to be bouncing around to whatever issue you think makes this a bad plan, but for the most part you're just wrong :dunno:
