I really think the spending should have been directed through the consumers. By a scheme like Robert Reich's FICA tax abolishment for the first 20k of income, paid for by the very wealthy.

It would stimulate business, who also would lose the matching tax burden, and put money where it is most efficiently allocated, directly in the consumers hot little hands, where it would be immediately spent.

It's really horrifying to see how inefficiently so much money is blown by our government!
