Well, what are you going to do with your rebate?

Well, I have no shortage of places to send the money, but I'll wait to
see if this happens at all. As to the economy, no, it will not help at all.

The economy needs major surgery. The last 8 yrs with "conserative"
repubicans calling the shots, our economy & status as a nation has suffered
severe hits.

Mine, IF I get one will go in savings... Unless the Lord has other plans...

I heard on the news this am that May is the month where the checks should be mailed out. It is hard for me to imagine how approximately $1800 (two adults, two kids) could turn someone's life around, let alone spark a change in the economy.

"Free" money is "free" money, and I wouldn't turn it down. But, I am holding my breath about the upswing of the economy.

Since I'm on disability and don't work any more, or make enough to even file income tax, I'll probably not get one.

Now if they want to make sure the money goes back into the economy, they should give it to the poorer people. They would spend it for sure: to survive.

I think it is silly to think that handing out money will help the conomy enough to turn it around, with so many Americans in so much debt - and whose money is it? It's our tax dollars in the first place. They would just be taking from us to give it to us. All political hoooey, in my humble opinion. It's not like they are giving us money from some huge government surplus, instead the government itself is in record deficit territory. Do they think we're all dumb enough to forget that?

I already told hubby that I want to use it to get our furrballs up to date on their white coat visits....not telling them that quite yet though....

momoffuzzyfaces: Supposedly the rebate will be available even for people who do not earn enough to file an income tax form. If that is true, you should be able to get one.
