“It really is a superhuman effort on our part to get this together in time to help the American people as quickly as possible," a top Democrat said.If there was ever a case of markets vs barter, earmarks is that case.
Why not Congress just hand out cash? Liquidity is at risk and the folks most aware of this are Congress critters, so they want to lock in their earmark in one big chunk. They are likely avoiding Fed taxes, actually, trying to internalize some vertical market back home to put transactions in the shadow of the tax.
