Let's get real. Even if a stimulus package could get through Congress and signed into law soon, even if directed at lower-income Americans who are far more likely than higher-income to spend any extra money, even if a cash supplement doled out within sixty days rather than a tax rebate or refund that won’t be out until next summer, even if in the range of five hundred dollars a household, which is the most anyone is talking about – even if all these conditions were met, the stimulus would still be too little and too late.Well. How about you? What are your plans?
