Alright, I think we’ve established the solution, but I just want to be careful. How much money could be spent on this solution? Is there any limit on the money that should be spent on this stimulus? Suppose we don’t spend the money as well as we should for some reason, and it doesn’t have the desired and obvious good effect? Suppose our political naysayers latch onto our stated milestones and tell us that we’ve failed. Do we just keep spending more forever, or is there a ceiling, in terms of percent of GDP, where we will go no further in stimulus spending?
