Hate to break it to you, but that's what a good deal of the stimulus bill was, and look how that turned out. Complete flop.

[...] As the descriptions above make clear, none of the studies are flawless. But while the optimistic studies do, in fact, support the conclusion that the stimulus worked, there is some reason to doubt that the pessimistic studies support the conclusion that it failed. [...] Due to these issues, I’m inclined to believe that the preponderance of evidence indicates the stimulus worked.[/url][/quote]
