Thank you, Mr President. As a result, his small business has taken on three other workers and will hire another two in coming months. One of the best things about the stimulus package is the flow-on effect, the multiplier effect. Jim and his co-workers buy their lunch every day at the milk bar and pick up groceries at Woolworths, the newspaper from the local newsagent, breakfast muffins from McDonald’s and coffee from Gloria Jean’s up the road, and that means supporting those jobs in small business too.
