Anyone else think the Bush Stimulus Package is a bad idea, prolongs the inevitable, makes the economy weaker in the long run, among other things? How about cutting back on "war" costs by 5%? That might help. Just sayin'.

"Bush Stimulus Package"..isn't that birthday basket one can get at Good Vibes?

(Politics and blue humor mix..especially when the politics seem so fucking put-me-in-a-hug-jacket-during-my-5150 stupid, it's funny in that tragic sort of way.)

Stimulus packages do tend to work, but they are short-term solutions - much in the same way that tax cuts, printing more money, or cutting interest rates are short-run. Also, there is serious doubt whether a tax rebate based on the amount paid is going to have much of an overall effect on the economy. A flat rebate - like the one from 2001 - tends to produce better results.
