Well, I'm talking about the OP, which discussed deficit spending and and growing government but didn't get into specifics. It seems like you want to fight about direct bottom up stimulus, but I'm afraid I agree with you. Direct payments to individuals in particular seem really efficient right now. The comment you quote is about program-oriented deficit spending - including e.g. the USA's PPP - which can get captured by incumbent interests.
