Hey Eric, they only collaborated this quickly because of the WTC disaster. Otherwise, they'd still be bickering over what method works best. Instead, Bush got 80% approval ratings and the Democrats figured they'd better go with the flow for awhile, so as not to look unpatriotic. I know I'm being cynical here, but I'm hitting the mark pretty precisely when I say these things. Either way, I'm happy for the short term, but am reserved about the long term effect of this money printing, low rates, and deficit spending. I imagine that we are simply deferring the real hangover until later. But this round of relief efforts will gain us at least 2-3 years of upswing. I'll use that time to get a little more defensive in case inflation rears it's ugly head in 2005 or 2006.
