How will the economic stimulus plan affect the American people?

This is more of an opinion question, but I will do my best to provide both sides of the argument. Personally, I don't think it will work, but like I said, that's an opinion.

Yes: It gives money to people/businesses, which businesses will use to hire new workers and people will spend at businesses, giving businesses more money to hire new workers.

No: The money going to people doesn't just magically appear. It is printed in massive quantities and lowers the value of the dollar. It also increases our national debt. Both of these are very bad for a national economy. In addition, any smart person getting money isn't going to just go spend it all. They are going to invest it, pay off debt with it, or save it. Businesses would do the same thing.
