It's interesting how our discussion of the stimulus package has turned away from facts and quantitative economic measures, to more of "feelings" arguments. I think this only mirrors the larger discussion in our country around economic issues, though. Complex economic discussions get boiled down to class-warfare and emotional arguments in the twenty-four hour news cycle that we live under.
