It's the pulling a number out of their ass bit I object to. I understand the financial issues here are massive, and there's no way Treasury would ever get a completely accurate figure. But before we commit to $700 billion in spending, shouldn't we at least try to get a better picture of what's going on? What if the right number is $200 billion? What if it's $1 trillion?
