Economic Stimulus Package

The document discusses the economic stimulus package passed by the US government in response to the recession. It provided both tax cuts and increased government spending, as Democrats favored more spending on infrastructure and industries while Republicans preferred broader tax cuts. The $787 billion package included $70 billion in tax cuts and the rest in new spending. Most economists believe the stimulus would create the most jobs in 2010. The document asks the reader for their opinion on what, if anything, the government should do to improve the economy.
