the US govt is sending checks to people whose income is in a certain range this month, ostensibly to "stimulate" the economy. you could also call it ridiculous election-year pandering... if you were cynical.

Bush uses a tax bribe to help the election of the next republican president Bush Boosts the economy by handing back money already taken from the taxpayer.

This is US specific. GWB enacted $600 stimulus check per person this year to boost the economy. Funny thing is I do not believe for a second it will help the economy so all this measure does is borrows money from people (which they will have to repay sooner or later) to give it to people to spend NOW. Essentially this is the same as a credit card. Anyway, the problems go much deeper than measly $600 can fix.

I'm using it to pay debt. And a lot of that debt is to the IRS, so they probably will just apply it directly. woot. Marc

What size cheque did you get? :omg: Or, how much did the bike cost?

I had to file separate so our entire return wouldn't go to pay IRS debt, only my portion. 2002 was a bad year and I'll be paying for a long long time... :sigh:

Ok so from the looks of it hardly anything went back into the economy..lol..I thought that would be the outcome considering gas prices and other things that went up. *steps on soap box* My personal opinion, I don't see it getting any better in the next 4 years. I don't feel comfortable with any of the candidates for Pres. (again my opinion) I feel ones a racist, the other a fake and yet another one you can't trust for anything. *steps down*

Considering the amount of driving I normally have to do in a week, the only thing that's going to be stimulated is my gas tank. :((

Well I couldn't care less about the value of the dollar and my Missus of nearly 17 years seems to think I am a camel. So you choose which one I was referring too. Off to bed now, 01:15, up in less than 6 hours to coach the soccer team, son is sick and the wife reckons he can't play. He's not dead yet, I don't see the problem.
