>> Our economy is demand limited <<

If I understand this phrase, it is a common misconception promulgated by the media --

it runs like this: If only we could get consumers to loosen up their purse strings the economy would get humming again because this would stimulate more production and then more demand and hiring would pick up ... stimulating further demand and voila -- the recession would be over.

Is this the gist of what you are saying??

Of course, if this were really true it REALLY COULD be fixed by simply printing money and giving it to poor people ...
