   Over half the stimulus package (presumably what the semi-literate Sandman   
   is ranting about) was tax cuts for small businesses.  Apparently tax cuts   
   for small businesses are a bad thing if it isn't a Republican doing it.   
      
   As for the rest of it, it managed a better than three-to-one return on   
   revenues from enhanced economic activity.  In other words, it paid for   
   itself three times over.
