Yup. But, it takes a while for it to have an effect, so they're using it as temporary relief.

It is better that we are borrowing from China vs Saudi Arabia or Venezuela, but not much.

Prove ANYTHING you just said. Please.

Ill take yours if you dont want it. Honestly i dont really care if its good for the economy since it goes against my nature to badmouth anyone or anything that will give me a check for $600 without me asking for it or doing anything.

Whether or not its a bad idea economically is really a moot point since its already happening, imho just shut up and enjoy your $$.

It's not like you or I are paying for it. We're no worse off regardless of who we got the money from. It's only a couple hundred billion that the government could pay off in no time as soon as they get their noses back out from where they don't belong (that being Iraq), considering the Stimulus package is about a third of what Bush spent on "defense" last year.

Either way, it IS a tax cut as it's money you would have either a) gotten in addition to your refund or b) paid less on your owed taxes.

Moreover, it IS a tax cut for 2008 because if you do something to change how much you'd be getting now (for example, ---- a kid or make more scratch), you'll get the difference between what you do get now, and what you would have gotten now, on your next year's tax return.

OH! And Plus! If ungrateful fuckfaces like yourself do what the government wants you to do with the money, it'll be rediculously helpful. Consider this: If this money really is coming from China, then you're using Chinese money to buy American goods. American companies then make more money, they pay more taxes, and voila, stimulus package is paid in full. Then, those companies can pay their employees more, who can then buy more ----. Thus, the cycle continues.

No.

The people that will be going out and spending the stimulus checks are the ones that don't have money. They shop at Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart shops at China. China gets more of our imaginary money.

Some slut sent this to me


"If we spend that money at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China.


If we spend it on gasoline it will go to the Arabs.


If we purchase a computer it will go to India.


If we purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala. If we purchase a car it will go to Japan.


If we purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan ...and none of it
will help the American economy.


The only way to keep that money here at home is to buy prostitutes, weed, beer, and tattoos, since these are the only products still produced in the USA .


Thank you for your help & please support the US"
