Wait until this "stimulus" doesn't work, and they ask for another one (or two, or three) down the line.
I'll give it six months, tops, before we go through this all over again. When the hyperinflation finally hits, we'll be paying $100 for a pack of gum.

$100,000.00 per stick.

Yep, it will be like the Planet Algon:

"This is the planet Algon, fifth world in the system of Aldebaran, the Red Giant in the constellation of Sagittarius. Here an ordinary cup of drinking chocolate costs four million pounds, an immersion heater for the hot-water tank costs over six billion pounds. and a pair of split-crotch panties would be almost unobtainable. A simple rear window de-misting device for an 1100 costs eight thousand million billion pounds and a new element for an electric kettle like this would cost as much as the entire gross national product of the United States of America from 1770 to the year 2000, and even then they wouldn't be able to afford the small fixing ring which attaches it to the kettle."
