Um, I believe the "stimulus package" (I got mine already, I stimulated my medicine supplier and a couple bars) is borrowed money from China, so really we're just giving the money back to china for those high definition TV's and we still owe them the money.

What is this shit??? Why?

"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.

Ok WHY do I have to buy a new TV? Cause the goverment says so?? Why do they want us all to have these TV's?? What's with the gov,telling me I can only view if i have a new TV Goverment aproved?? WHY? I do not like that at all.
Makes me think Big Brother is watching, I will NOT BE BUYING A NEW TV or a convertor box.. There will be no spying freaking TV's in this house,

actually, its going from the taxes of the poor to the pockets of the rich

but the rich deserve tax cuts!

Comment in reply to minodude's original comment

yep. I agree, the rich "need" more money. As if a few million gone would be the end of their world.

The sad thing is that the government is run by rich white guys that need all the more money to screw us over.

The poor shouldn't be paying higher taxes with money they don't have. There are so many problems, what will probably happen is we'll over throw the government and create a dictatorship. Not saying it'll happen soon, maybe a few more decades. I could be wrong.

When President Obama was the chosen President if US. When Obama chosen as the President of United States, people knew that change would come in America. And now, some of you welcome the changes that would happen in the country most especially if it is for the good of the entire citizen in the country. Barack Obama is hatching a plan to get you extra cash on payday so you won't need a payday loan. He is proposing a tax cut and what he calls the Make Work Pay Credit. It’s a different strategy for stimulating the economy. So far all the efforts that have been made by the current administration to get the economy back on track seem to be hurting instead of helping and the need for a payday loan with many people has increased. It’s impossible to tell the future; maybe the steps that have already been taken will help straighten things out in the long run. But the economy has been growing steadily worse since the mortgage crisis and the credit crunch hit. Obama is hoping that bigger checks on payday will help restore consumer confidence so you won't need to take out a payday loan.
