My point is that money must be targeted to be effective. $2000 for everyone will likely only give a small profitability boost to many companies, but not enough to make any changes on.
Remember when GWB gave virtually everyone in the country $600? A lot of good that did, and it made absolutely no difference to my life.
Did a great deal of good. I signed mine over to the Obama campaign.
