Every economist, even those who may quibble with the details of the makeup in a package, will agree that if you’ve got a trillion dollars in lost demand this year, and a trillion dollars in lost demand next year, then you’ve got to have a big enough recovery package to actually make up for those lost jobs and lost demand.”

Either my credential is a bunch of BS (well, there is something to it), or somehow I changed my understanding of how economics works while I was sleeping last night. Sorta sounds like something 43 would have uttered.
