What concerns me so much about this "stimulus" is that its real purpose is to prop up government programs instead of trying to increase productivity, etc. Maybe what America needs to do instead of trying to artificially 'stimulate' the economy into hyper-drive (similar to athletes using 'performance enhancing' drugs) is to allow ourselves to adjust to a less consumerist and high-volume economy. As the old saying goes, "Less is more."
