The new plan is to eliminate the use of the word "Stimulus" as it is being viewed by voters as a dirty word. Instead they will use "Job Creation".
Additionally, they are also eliminating "Recovery Act" from their vocabulary, replacing it with "Make it in America".
The actual elements of the plan are the same failed ones they used in their 2009 "Stimulus Bill", but they feel it will have greater acceptance with these sweeping vocabulary changes.
I do hope they are wrong and most Americans are not that simple minded, but there is much doubt.
If you are interested in reading all about it, which is pretty much a waste of time, you can find it here:

I heard that they are going to take 5 billion dollars and use it to buy "Power Ball" lottery tickets in all the states that have them, then use the winnings to pay off the debt... ::) ::) ::)

I like that. At least there is a cap on how much it will cost us and even with the lottery odds, it is a sure thing we will get something back from that investment.

If we won that, we would be getting more of a return than we have been.
