- uoaei 6y agoI notice folks getting starry-eyed in the face of these big numbers. But if you look at how that money is allocated, it won't be very good for anyone except those who are milking this crisis for all they can. The bill needs to be much bigger to have any considerable impact. Remember -- the economy only works if people are spending money, and people are only spending money when they have money in their pockets. Trickle-up economics is real and it works.
