The stimulus plans can, in my opinion, work if the money reaches the entities it was meant for..but in no way is it a long term solution... The only long term solutions is to allow for markets to adjust on their own based on supply and demand.Baron's Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05363887015251189502noreply@blogger.com
