'Economy to get ugly ...'

"If this downturn came from
business-sector spending, you can't turn it
around with interest-rate reductions alone.
Do businesses really spend money and hire
people because rates go down? Our
thought is that it's sales and earnings that
drive business spending," Sinai said.

Sinai recommends additional tax cuts in the
range of $125 billion be "restrained by what
the market can tolerate." He includes
income-tax reductions for middle- and
lower-income families to stimulate
consumption, as well as reducing Social
Security tax rates for individuals.
