And your point? There’s no telling how I might spend a prebate check, and I’m not a welfare recipient. I might decide to restock my ammunition supply. Or, put some money down on some new bling for the significant other...
How is that germaine to the discussion?

In the interest of full disclosure...I’m no fan of government largesse in any form. I’m not a supporter of the prebate, either.

Non sequitur. Welfare is welfare, regardless of how you "spend" it.
