Two notes on the House stimulus package:
1. Paul Krugman links to the work the Tax Policy Center has done on the package, which shows that the poorer 60 percent of the population stands to benefit very little from the House plan — far less than the richer 40 percent.
2. David Sirota finds the pork buried in the plan.
