Like, Duh!

A guest columnist in the WaPo today writes:

But in parceling out our stimulus money, shouldn't the government direct most of it toward those who will really need to use it right away, whether the disbursement is done by payroll tax cuts, gift cards, unemployment insurance or any other device? Breaking out of the population the neediest segment may not be easy, but nothing is easy in an economy that is, well, breaking down.

This is why tax cuts of the Republican variety are a complete farce and just another goodie given to their primary constituency, the rich and well-to-do.
