Why can't we use some of the existing $11 trillion to "stimulate" the economy and create jobs?

Asked by SquirrelEStuff (10007points) February 9th, 2009

Our national debt is almost $11 trillion. That means there is almost $11 trillion out there. I still can’t figure out where the $800 Billion package is going to come from, but why can’t it come from that money, instead of adding onto this debt.
