How would you stimulate the economy?

How do you feel about the so called stimulus package? Here is a list of things that I would have liked to have seen.
 1) Eliminate capital gains taxes. 
 2) Lower mortgage rates to 4.5%.  
 3) Give 50 Billion to the first car company who can build a $20,000 electric 4 door sedan that goes 100 miles without a recharge. (I would give a set of steak knifes to the one who comes in second).
 4) Increase Military pay by 25%.
 Tell me what you would have liked to have seen.

    I would like to see an accelerated capital investment amortization allowance like what we had around the Y2K investments.

    I think any kind of capitalization would do what we need. This would create new jobs as well as increase the tax bases for government.
