Tax Rebate

#101

Post by Dr. Snubnose »

Tax Rebate


President Bush said each one of us would get a $1200.00 tax rebate. It was previously slated to be $1400.00, but they dropped it to a $1200.00 tax rebate because of various
budget problems. Now, if we spend that money at Wal-Mart, all the money will go to China, if we spend it on computers, most of the money will go to Korea or India. If we spend it
on gasoline it will all go to the Arabs.....and none of these scenarios will help the American economy.

We need to keep that money here in America .....so the only way to keep that money here at home is to drink beer, gamble, or spend it on prostitution. Currently it seems that
these are the only businesses still left in the U.S.

:spyder: Dubya borrowed the money for the rebates from China so it ultimately has to go back there. If we're the sort of country that pays its debts, of course. :spyder:

So, basically you are saying we should follow the example of the Governor of New York, Eliot Spitzer. :p

At 5 grand an hour for the lady in question, I don't think I can live up to Eliot's standards. For 5 grand I think I should have the entire Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders.

Then again if Eliot had been smart enough to outsource to China he probably got have gotten what he needed for 200 an hour.
