<<<Only a third of the stimulus bill goes to infrastructure as Keynes proposed.

My problem is with this stimulus bill, not necessarily a Keynesian approach to things.>>>

I think there is 40% that goes into lowering taxes.

That leaves about 27% that goes into some worthwhile public projects that go directly to people or help to keep a variety of people employed.

If anything, the stimulus package is not bold enough.
