In all honesty, a fiscal "boost" is not going to solve the crisis and stimulate the economy. I understand the Democrats' desire for infrastructure spending. I do not, however, understand why the Democrats are attempting to force and rush such projects. Let us discuss such projects in a timely and responsible manner. The bill passed by the House is not a stimulus package. It is an ineffective hodgepodge of spending increases and tax cuts.
