As you have all undoubtedly heard by now, the Bush Administration has said that
each and every one of us should get a nice little tax rebate check to spur on the US economy.

However...

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

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

If we purchase a computer, it will all go to India.

If we purchase fruit and vegetables, it will all go to Mexico,
Honduras, and Guatemala.

If we purchase a good car, it will all go to Japan .

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

We need to keep that money here in America.
And the only true way to keep that money here at home is to spend it
on prostitutes and beer, since those are the only businesses still
thriving in the US .

Hence, Eliot Spitzer isn't a criminal...he's a PATRIOT!!!

So what's your plan when you get that rebate check?

 

Pay off my wifes visa!

Pass on the prostitutes and just buy a bunch of really cheap american beer.

 

I have NO PLAN because I will believe it if I get it. People are going out right now spending this rebate that they haven't even got. That is the plan for America. IF I GET IT I WILL SAVE IT. or buy more precious metal.

 

I think it would have been better to spend the money on rebuilding roads and bridges. That would provide jobs and keep the money here. For many people I don't really expect it to make a big difference with the rebate and if they do spend it more than likely a lot of it will go to China.

 

yup mines going right towards school bills, I.E. credit card, i lived off the freakin thing while in college.... I have a feeling most people will do the same.

 

Why waste money sending out a letter ($42milion) that you are going to get a check, then another letter (another $42mil) to send out the check? That money could buy me gas for at least a year or two.

 

maybe a laptop, or a blue ray dvd player, since my hd dvd player is now obsolete, thank you toshiba and the movie industry

 

Spend your money in Canada. It'll all go back into the US economy

 

I'd like to put the money in my retirement Corvette account but I'm sure my wife will want to spend it on some useless, frivolous thing like new furniture.

 

I hear ya', xlt. Wives. Go figure.

 

I'm kind of partial to a Ford GT40 account.

Furniture?

That's for bond fires.

 

I'm buying a new oven with mine and banking the rest for future gas money.

 

banking it

 

it will go towards replenishing my savings.

 

Going into the fund for my wifes next car.
