Sorry, confused by the greentext, but are you saying that the US Stimulus package didn't work? From what I've read and seen, pretty much every economist said it did what it was suppose to do, including preventing the US Economy from nose diving into a full on depression. With some economist saying that it should have been even larger to have the real impact that was intended.
