Obama Readying $300 Billion Package

Teh Very Smart People are telling me that President Obama intends to unveil tomorrow night some sort of jobs-making bill worth about $300 billion.

Here are some top secret highlights.
-- lots of tax cuts
-- payroll tax relief
-- some infrastructure spending
-- unemployment extension
-- state and local aid

My first thoughts.

• It's too small.  I would like to see it around the $600 billion range.
• Not entirely sure what new money is being influxed into the economy.
• Why no mention about a widespread refinancing effort?
• More specifics especially with broadband expansion
• Why can't we just helicopter drop a bunch of money?
• If we can't helicopter drop money, why don't we just print a bunch of money and mail it to people?  Say about $4,000 for each tax payer.  Call it a rebate and be done with it.
