I just recieved my stimulus payment. |
|
It's nice to suddenly have 600 dollars at my disposal. I can't use it to stimulate anything, it will be for basic necessities. Thanks George :eyes:!

9. I did use the :eyes roll: smiley in the post. |
|
I understand that the reason I need a stimulus payment is due to "George". He has brought us to the brink of economic collapse & he is trying to hold it off with the pathetic gesture of a weeks pay.(average)

26. $1200/600 or whatever amount and georgie thinks that will fix the economy? |
|
Or thinks this will keep his party in power? And those who need this the most won't see a dime. Some stimulus plan. More like bribery.

8. on a more serious note... |
|
is this going to be the government response, every time we get into financial difficulties?
Throwing money around? If'd be nice if we'd actually try and address the root causes of these problems?

13. They can't/won't admit to the true inflation rate. |
|
They claim a 4 % +/- rate when in the real world it is around 10%. They have destroyed the dollar & our credit rating with the world. I have always believed that "globalization of our economy" would FORCE the average American to accept a lower standard of living as opposed to raising those of the third world. Somebody has to pay for equalizing worldwide income. As usual, the poor & middle class are the ones paying.

21. Wasn't Judas bought off with 6 pieces of silver? |
|
It's been a long time since I practiced Catholicism, didn't Judas betray Jesus for 6 pieces of silver?
Are we now betraying our children for 600 dollars?
Or, are we betraying ourselves, the troops, each other...???
