Assignment #3 D.Feaster

In the article Trade-Offs in the Stimulus Package written by Madison Power talks about the future plans for the stimulus package. The article was written for the CQ politics on February 4, 2009, the author states that their are two different significance in the debate. The first talks about the trade-off and how we want to get the $1 trillion dollars package to help get the economy back on track. Powers states in the article that "On the other hand, we want our policies to be fair or equitable." meaning that doing the time of the trade-off we want to be treated fair when it comes to the economy. Powers mentions the infrastructure of estimated effects as high or higher than many other likely infrastructure investments. Right now the economy is in a rough state and I do believe that it will get better in some time.
