It would be nice, but I dont know if it would help. Last time so many ppl put theirs into savings instead of spending it. It might work better if they could get them out before Christmas. I know if we got another, we would spend it. We didnt save the last one either.

Thanks, Im glad you all got to come. We still need to get together sometime to look at the pictures, there never is any free time to do it, so we'll just have to make some.

This would be a $150 billion stimulus package, in addition to the already existing $700 billion bailout. I don't see how the first go 'round stimulated anything, so there's no reason to believe that a 2nd stimulus check would have a different result. For once, I agree with Kantucky.

Last one went to pay owed taxes, that my former employer didn't take enough out for. :evil:

We got $8.39

This would be over 1.2 trillion dollars in stimulus/bailout money this year,
at some point hopefully they'll learn that you can't fix the problem of inflation
by printing more money.

All of these "economic experts" and they can't answer a fundamental economics 101 question.

Throwing money at a problem is always the government's answer to everything. If I have a financial problem I do a little research, use a little common sense, operate on a budget, don't spend more than I make, etc..... ;-)
