While I think the stimulus package is a good idea, the problem with it of course is that it is a big whack of money, and with the bad bank package coming, there is going to be nothing else for anything for a long time. At some point, spending all this money has to be a big problem -- America didn't start out debt free. And they are pissing huge amounts of money away on the bloated military. None of this is good, economically.   It is not as if just jump-starting the economy is going to be enough. At some point this deficit spending on such a scale is going to be an even bigger mess.
