In cinema, the composer has to sort of decide in the collaborative sense: Do you want time to seem like it's moving faster or slower?

About $144 billion is allocated directly into state coffers for continuing existing programs that have been heavily burdened by the recession, like Medicaid. Hundreds of billions more have been set aside for tax cuts and continuing benefits to the poor and unemployed. The most visible part of the program, and the most politically explosive, is the roughly $152 billion for infrastructure investment, for which no one had a road map. In some cases, states and localities could spend those funds...
