The Washington Post has just reported that the main beneficiaries of the so-called economic stimulus plan being proposed by Bush and a compliant Democratic Congress will be businesses as opposed to individuals.
$70 billion dollars will end up in the pockets of businesses. Increases in unemployment benefits or food stamps, which would have benefited the working class, have been dropped from the plan.
This is a typical capitalist “plan”: reward businesses and screw the workers.
