The Big Test

Who says it better than David Brooks? He says in this one article what it takes many an entire book to explain. Thomas Sowell explains a similar point in "Conflict of Vision(s?)". Brooks' article basically says that we have no way of knowing all of the unintended downstream impacts of the new stimulus plan. And as much as he thinks those will be negative, he is holding out hope that they are not... because the cost otherwise is simply too high. But read his words, they are much more graceful than mine.
