Nothing new here, just the usual. Every "serious" solution to our problems involves shoving free money down the gullets of the people who caused all the problems. We screech about family values and our awesome values as numerous kids live in poverty. And, no, having a teevee doesn't make them not poor.
Trends have been bad in this country for thirty years, arrested briefly by the internet bubble (which had some genuine boom aspects to it) and then the housing bubble. We shouldn't need a bubble for a bit of the additional income generated to trickle down to people who don't own private jets.
