Tweet the People: Will Obama's economic stimulus plan work?

Here's our Twitter topic of the day:

The US Senate today narrowly voted in favour of Barack Obama's estimated $838bn (£577bn) spending bill that the president hopes will create or save millions of jobs.

Do you think the stimulus will work? If not, what should be done to help America's struggling economy?

UPDATE: Here are some responses from Twitter users

Tosk59:

How can one tell? Things get better (they eventually will) claim success. Otherwise, claim w/ no stimulus would have been worse.

a stimulus will work, but this one, umm, I dunno
