I oppose any additional large new stimulus by government spending effort. To the extent that any type of stimulus might be useful, tax cuts are more likely to be useful.

IMHO the most effective stimulus would be to cut total government expenditures by a huge percentage. Fire two out of every four government employees. STat with Congress and cut their staffs down to two or three people. Then sell the excess Congressional office buildings.
