As far as low-end spending stimulus, these people are running on thirty-year-old ideas. Back when almost everything a working family bought was manufactured in America by Americans, there might have been something to it.

"Who actually ends up with all that spending cash now?"

Service economy.

Food industry. Restaurants and their workers, although on a $600 check, Burger King and McDonalds will benefit more than Red Lobster.

Dentists? Auto repair shops, etc.,

I believe US companies contract with Chinese plants to produce our goods so buying "made in China" doesn't mean your money is necessarily going out of country.

But you know that.
