In my mind, the best thing Congress could do to assist in economic recovery is to not participate. If government were likely to create an environment conducive to economic recovery, that would be helpful, but that obviously hasn't been the case.

I think a strong case could be made for linking all of our economic woes to government intervention and legislated social engineering. A little intransigence now and then is a good thing.
