Don't entice them, throw them out into the real world. They'll have to figure out for themselves that check isn't coming on the 1st.
Do you have the votes? Alternatively, do you have the law? Prior Supreme Courts have stripped the Constitutional restraints from government, putting elected politicians above the law. And the composition of the current Court has recently proved it is not capable of correcting those errors.

We are the closing segments of the last quarter and the clock is about to run out. Medicare goes irreversibly into the red in 2008 and Social Security follows suit in 2012. Financial chaos will rain down on the US destroying our currency, our Treasury, and any remaining wealth that you have that is not portable or that can be hidden. What you have that is not GOLD is vulnerable. There will be no presidential election in 2016 because the US will cease to exist as a politically recognizable nation.
Can this be avoided? Maybe, if we act soon.
