The Stimulus Plan - Will it Help Retail?

Posted on February 12, 2009 by Scott Kadish
The Stimulus Plan is supposed to create jobs. In the retail sector, jobs will be created only if consumers start spending again. Some of you may remember the eighties when consumers were able to deduct credit card interest from taxable income. With the need to motivate consumers to spend, reinstituting this kind of tax credit should be part of the plan.  The tax credit would apply only if consumers spend.  This kind of direct assistance would seem to be more effective than building water parks.
