Military peeps should make more money and be taxed a LITTLE less, because they are fighting for our country and working directly under the supervision of the government, being as someone earlier stated "puppets" to try and make our government look good. But they should NOT be tax exempt, because they do get housing, food and insurance.
The post about the people on welfare having to pass drug tests is DEAD on, but you won't see our government doing that because that would open another whole can of worms!! I do agree with it though!
These checks..whether they are rebates, refunds, or whatever they want to call them are BS. They will cost us alot more than they are giving us in the long run. You can bet your a$$ that they have already got a plan in place to get the money back from us,,,IF the economy flourishes.
$300, $500, $1000, $1800, is NOT going to simulate the economy. Alot of people have severe debt and will use the money to help pay on some of their debts. That means that in general, the economy will not see very much of the money "floating" around.
And the comment about it being time for us to "rebel" against our government....Well that is a good idea, but us, as Americans, are chicken shid, and won't stick together and work as a team to do so! I for one, would love to see it happen.
These checks will just make it look like they are trying to help us, but in reality they are still screwing us royally!
