Gov't Rebate Utilization

[rbroyles]

As you may have heard, the Bush Administration said every American will now get a nice rebate.

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


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


If we spend it on 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 electronic gadgets it will all go to Taiwan or Malaysia .


We need to keep that money at home to strengthen our economy here, so the best way to spend it is for prostitutes and beer, the only truly functional businesses still in the US .

At least my fiance gets one so I can spend it. You don't get a cost of living adjustment in that great state of yours?

It's amazing to me that there isn't an outcry over the fact that the rebate qualifications aren't indexed somehow to take into account cost of living in different areas and that there are tons of people receiving rebates who don't even file a tax return.

If I use all of mine on cocaine, that's fine because I am helping our Columbian allies correct?

since the cut off for singles (to get nothing) is something like 3 times the median household income in this country i doubt anyone is feeling sorry for me and others.
