US Plans $800 Billion to Ease Lending Crisis

This is an excellent article and worth a look. The tables and graphs are quite good.

In the last year, the government has assumed about $7.8 trillion in direct and indirect financial obligations. That is equal to about half the size of the nation’s entire economy and far eclipses the $700 billion that Congress authorized for the Treasury’s financial rescue plan.
Wow!!!

Does make me reconsider my deflation scenario.
