If Safeway makes 3% on everything this guy buys, that's 3% additional wealth that wouldn't otherwise be there, right? Meanwhile if you give it to a more profitable business, they'll make much more out of it. We're not pissing around stimulus dollars to feed poor people or make them richer. We want to increase the total amount of value in the economy. Your now-he-can-buy-luxuries argument is bullshit. Great, let the government subsidize iPads, that'll get the economy going.
