A perspective on the Economic Stimulus
You guys might have seen this around.
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 . You can
keep the money in America by spending it at yard sales, going to a baseball
game, or spend it on prostitutes, beer (domestic ONLY), or tattoos, since those
are the only businesses still in the US .
