I am a bad American
We used both our stimulus checks to pay off the car loan. Any suggestions on what I should do now?

2. I think the idea behind the checks is
after the economy is "stimulated" with the checks that everyone will be so grateful that they will vote Republican one more time.

3. right...
and I was making a joke.

You know...spend to stimulate the economy..and if you spend on credit it "helps" the poor credit card companies...

and also since he just got out of debt...you know the American way is to be in debt...

oh, never mind....

5. aww. I just got those paid off
right before Christmas. I don't know about yall, but I am hunkering in for bad times. The stick in the proscess is the student loans. No way to get them paid off anytime soon unless thy decide to refund all of the taxes I paid in the last... well, my lifetime. Plus my parents. And possibly some of my grandparents as well.
