The article gives an insight to the economic policy of the U.S. It states that the stimulus plan passed by President George W. Bush which allows the government to borrow and distribute a minimum of $110 billion to low and middle income taxpayers has no economic justification. It suggests that the Americans should learn to live within their means lest a determined and disingenuous government can produce very creative ways of compelling consumption.
