Very close. So far between the original 800Billion screwing and this weeks 800Billion ADDITIONAL screwing + interest assumed on both (which actually is far underestimated) we are looking at $2 Trillion being thrown away that the government does not have. If that money existed and was divided among approx 300Million US citizens each man/woman/child would get approx $7000. Of course, each will owe more than that over the long haul since this is borrowed/phoney money to begin with.

Most people will not get anything except massive debt from these 'stimulus' packages.

This is just the start. We're only 2 weeks into the worst of it.
