Title: 2008 Stimulus payments...... (only in America)
Post by: ice4life on May 02, 2008, 07:26:24 PM
The federal government is sending each and everyone of us a $600
rebate.

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

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

- If we purchase a computer it will go to India .

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

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

- If we purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan ...
and none of it will help the American economy.

The only way to keep that money here at home is to buy prostitutes, weed, beer, and tattoos,
since these are the only products still produced in the USA .

We are spending all of our money for vacation.  Who cares anymore, like thisis really gonna get us out of a slump.  After the money is gone, food prices are still gonna be high, gas prices are gonna keep rising...so....I dont see how its going to help any.

 We're happy to get it but most of it is going to pay for a back up sump pump  and to have my ass**LE  neighbors tree limb cut down that hangs over my yard. He wont trim the trees because like I said he's an ass**le!  :/O :/O

From what I've read and heard (Lou Dobbs) the money for the "incentive" checks is coming by way of a loan from China anyway, so it seems only right to spend it at WallyWorld.

Using it for repairs to the plumbing at our little cabin.....but it's only a drop in the bucket (pun intended).
The US Dept. of Forestry (who we lease the land from) has mandated our cabin tract replace the system. It's likely going to be close to $9k per cabin. OUCH.

That's way cool. Cali, Columbia in June!
You wouldn't be another Sly salsa dancer, would you xnewyawka?

I suggest that you and the misses better use some of the stimulus payment for a few brush-up lessons before you venture over to Cali, the home of some of the best salsa dancers in the world.

Me and the misses maybe going over there in September when Cali hosts
the World Festival of Salsa, Sept. 10-15.

Lol, when the crap goes down in the US to the point you need to pull your money out of the matress it will be worthless anyways.  Take that money and buy canned goods and ammo or something.

No matter how we spend it, the one we give it to will buy comething from China anyway.  I put my money on my mortgage which is owned by Scotland so it seems there's no way of keeping it in the country.  It's finally paid off now so Scotland isn't getting any more money from me today.

or how you always seemed to be able to walk across the rivers that were 20 ft deep but end up drowning or wrecking in the 5 ft ones lol.
