The article "Trade-Offs in the Stimulus Package" was written by Madison Powers for CQPolitics.com. This article was primarily written to ease people's anxiety about the stimulus package. Most people feel that the stimulus package should be all about fixing the "big" problems, not the little problems, and they feel that the package has a lot of money going to smaller problems and not enough going towards a "big fix." Powers suggests that this is what the stimulus package was intended to do; fix a lot of little problems.
Madison Powers is right about the stimulus package. There will be many small problems that will be fixed with the package. Although that won't be what a lot of people are looking for at first, I think that (as well as Powers thinks that) it will be a better option and one that is better for the years to come.
