Spending your checks

So what are you guys going to buy with your check? Me? I don't get one. My old lady claimed me this year on the taxes as a dependant and did not tell me till about a few hours ago. That $400 credit really paid off!

Cannot you hear the presses running, printing out those $100 bills !! I forget how long it takes to make 1 Billion dollars in new bills. So 1 Trillion would only be 1000x longer. Imagine if they had to print that many !
Least down here in Peru we can still use cash and no one looks at us like we are dinosaurs.

last time they done this I was too poor to qualify.
in other words I would have spent the money on necessities and not a new TV set, and I couldn't pay them back.
if this one is offset by them taking it out of my next years tax return, they can keep it.
the money is supposed to be coming from the IRS so at the least it will have to be claimed as income and then a percentage [you know 20-30%] paid back to both of them as income tax.

I watched the debates and seen what they are doing with this bill.
I'm pissed off about the whole thing.
yea [sarcasm] we are getting 1200$,, the rest is going where it isn't needed PBS---NPR__ national endowment for the arts... the kennedy center?
really?... what? they need 200 million dollars to fight the corona virus too? seriously?

a plus 600 a week for unemployment on top of the state unemployment.
seriously?
and they [D's] say those on it will run right back to their 8$ an hour sweat shop job.
of course they will want to go back to making 300$ a week after making 900$ a week for not going to work, I mean who wouldn't want to take advantage of that loss of income as soon as possible.

this is what the whole delay has been about,,, tell your neighbors.
can't wait for,,, no I'm not going there.

Guess I could put it towards the ambulance chaser, the one that my great, great grand children will need to file for bankruptcy on the day they are born. :rolleyes:

the whole process just pisses me off.
I'm having a real hard time, and deleting the rant I just typed out in this post, I know it don't belong here.
and I don't want to cross the line any further than I did up above.

Yep, tough times to moderate a no politics policy with all the goins on. I've deleted more than a few of my own posts before posting too.

It needed to be a nice BR type group, we got a cylinder bore shotgun instead.

I'm not going there either. Nothing I can think to say is inside the lines. Hell, I can't even think of anything funny to post.

I will be spending my evening at work listening to coworkers complain that they aren’t getting enough!
I am polite enough to not tell them to enjoy my money

I take it you mean the $2 trillion that won't be paid back except possibly by some grand children doing it like most of the other public debt. Funny the loans I took out throughout my life time, I was the one that repaid them. NOT, my offspring or some unknown benefactors. That's probably more than enough said already!
