[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Free money! Whoo-hoo! Now I can buy Packers Super Bowl tickets!

[Doofer]

Make it a $1000..

For individuals or couples?

Anyway one things for sure I could use the money...

[purpleraine]

There is no end to the idiocy. Don’t they know that vote buying is illegal?

[Domandred]

Remind me again where this money would come from? We already in a deficit so it’s not like there’s a surplus to cut it from.

[DrGunsforHands]

Yay tax-cuts!

[edcoil]

How much does the state get by taxing me with the income?

[edcoil]

Does the guy the just hired greenspan that made billions playing it short and hurting our economy - does they get the 300.00 as well?

Just as long as they give a “rebate” to someone who never paid “in” in the first place. That is just galling.

Actually, I’d prefer a line giving me a tax break on something else... A rebate is giving my money away to someone else.

[BenLurkin]

More proof, as if any were needed, that we are governed by cynical crooks.

[NormsRevenge]

I think it’s an automatic , everybody.. life ain’t fair, I know , I hear ya.. lol

[chuckles]

Let's see, I give them money, and then they give part of it back.

IT'S MY FREAKIN MONEY IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sooooo grateful.

Drill in ANWAR and save some real money.

[cookcounty]

TWO mufflers!

[denydenydeny]

I have always hated “rebates” of this type, because they are an admission that taxes are too high but people take exactly the opposite message from it.

[eyedigress]

The rebates would likely be limited to individuals with incomes of $85,000 or less

Woo Hoo!

[afnamvet]

Make it $3000.00 each and two season NASCAR tickets.

[umgud]

If they give out $150 billion to stimulate the economy, they had too much of our money to begin with.

[Moonman62]

They should send the rebates out in October so the little people will remember who their incumbents are in November.
