Stimulus Package

What does everyone think of the stimulus package being discussed? Should we do away with the $600 federal unemployment boost? Another round of $1200 direct payments? Should there be protection from malpractice suits?

I can't see the Democrats caving to a reduction in the unemployment boost. And with the election right around the corner I think it would be stupid for Republicans to insist on it, which means they probably will lol.

While usually I support lower spending and fiscal policy, this is the first time I can remember that the gov't has actually shut down sections of the economy. No one is getting rich with these payments, they are spending it, which stimulates the parts of the economy which are still functioning. While not a "job" the effect is certainly "shovel ready."
