RE: Economic stimulus

I'll explain it for you..........The 'plan' is really rather simple.....What it means is us guys in the upper middle class give 300, 600, 1200 bucks to those in the lower classes.....then they go spend that money of frivilous crap-hair, nails, drugs and gold caps.

Somehow that will stimulate the economy and wewill no longer be a bankrupt nation.

No stimulus for me. But it's only a loan from yourself anyway. Comes off your "refund" for next year.

Heaven forbid they actually cut taxes to stimulate the economy! Noooo, can't do that!

You sure about that? I know that is what happened with the check we got to ease gas/electric, a couple of years ago. It was my understanding that this was not going to be paid back by me??? Anyways, from what I gather, it is $600 for yourself, and $300 for each child. Which should mean, I have $1200 coming. I checked the IRS site, and mine should ship mid May (I think... I have it written down somewhere).

As far as stimulating the economy... and buying something nice for myself, or the bike... nope... going directly to bills... at least that is what the boss told me... Maybe, just maybe, I can use some of it... but, I doubt it. With the way everything is going up, this small amount will not even catch me up... sad to say...

No this is not like that last "early tax return" it does not come off your next year tax return like the last one did.....don't get me wrong, we will all definitely pay for it in one way or another. $600 for single making 75k or less, $1200 for married making less than 150k, plus $300 for dependents, but I didn't notice the income restrictions when dependents are involved....I don't have any so it didn't matter to me. As long as the gubement is handing it out I'll take it, but it sets a bad presedent for our country becoming even more of a nanny state. I agree that guns should be toward the top of the purchase list....preferably made in America guns. Sooner or later we're gonna have to defend ourselves from our own government.

RE: Economic stimulus

So all you guys who are not getting a check, are you making more than the $75k/$150k, or are you border jumpers? [sm=escape.gif]
I am getting a check for $2100. 600 for me, 600 for the wife, and 3x300 for the kids.but they just filled my oil tank... so there it goes!
