Economic Stimulus Payment
This year, taxpayers will receive an Economic Stimulus Payment. This is a very exciting new program that I will explain using the Q and A format:
Q. What is an Economic Stimulus Payment?
A. It is money that the federal government will send to taxpayers.
Q. Where will the government get this money?
A. From taxpayers.
Q. So the government is giving me back my own money?
A. Only a smidgen.
Q. What is the purpose of this payment?
A. The plan is that you will use the money to purchase a high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the economy.
Q. But isn't that stimulating the economy of China ?
A. Shut up.
Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the US economy by spending your stimulus check wisely:
If you spend that money at Walmart, all the money will go to China.
If you spend it on gasoline it will go to the Arabs.
If you purchase a computer it will go to India.
If you purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras ,
and Guatemala (unless you buy organic).
If you buy a car it will go to Japan.
If you purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan.
And none of it will help the American economy.
We need to keep that money here in America .
So, you can keep the money in America by spending it at yard sales,
going to a baseball game, or spend it on prostitutes (it's legal in Nevada),
beer (domestic ONLY), or tattoos, since those are the only businesses still in the US.

WTFITS?!?
Even if you buy a TV from Wal Mart its an American corporation and they get the profit from the TV.
1) They already bought the TV.
2) Now they sell the TV for more than they paid.
3) They make money to pay employees
4) Go sit in the corner and think about what you posted for awhile.
5) ????????
6) OK what did we learn?
8) ??????????????

Actually the advice is partially right.
You need to SAVE your money. The government would have you believe that SPENDING money is good for the economy. It is not. We need to STOP borrowing and spending, and START saving and investing.

If you are talking to me, "noob", the tax cuts and credits mean more money in your pocket which in turn means more money in your pocket to buy said items in my 1st post. that is all.

That $400 dollars is going to end up costing $~500 or more dollars to repay anyway. So, I'm not exactly thrilled.
