Assignment#3RNeal

Madison Powers authored the article “Trade-Off’s in the Stimulus Package” for The CQ Today,” explaining the positives and negatives of the nearly trillion dollar package to his readers. He attempts to detail in the simplest terms what the stimulus package is and how it is going to affect the economy. There is much speculation on what this package is going to do for financial sector of this country. With so much criticism, many representatives in congress are having trouble finding support in the package.  The media, as well, are being unclear as to what this package will do, and the author is trying to make the point that no one really knows what is in store ahead for this country and that we should all hope for the best.
