Ellisblog Stimulus Package

Well, it's not mine, actually. It's the brainchild of one Leonard Yablon, my neighbor and friend and the former CFO of Forbes. And it goes like this:

1. Allow individual 401K withdrawals of $12,000 for the next 100 days.
2. Individual withdrawals up to $12,000 will be tax free.
3. The result should be an immediate infusion of $120-180 billion into the economy.
4. Which should stablize the markets.

There are other plans out there. But the Yablon Plan seems the easiest to get done fast.
