Further to my last post, I agree with others who’ve been saying we should stop calling the current pork bill a “stimulus” package. It stimulates only the Swiss bank accounts of the well-connected (all right, that may be over the top, but not by much). More accurately, it’s a borrow-and-spend package or a tax-our-children-and-spend package. Other ideas welcome.
