I'm not sure how you avoid a death spiral of job losses followed by reduced consumer spending followed by more job lossess followed by more reduced consumer spending if no one is priming the pump.
we certainly want private sector job creation. and as soon as that's happening, i'm all for ending the stimulus. but this argument reminds me of the great derby trail inflation scare of 2008. you're still worried about the wrong thing.
the primary challange of this economy is getting people to spend money. it's not going to happen without continued government stimulus.

I wasnt aware that the govt was giving people money to spend. Where do I sign up?
Do we really have to rehash the topic that the 1st stimulus contained very little stimulus which has a lot to do why it didnt do the trick?
