 Incentive package . . .
#8381395 - 05/09/08 11:20 AM (1 month, 26 days ago) |

So I just got my $600 "incentive" and although I'm not refusing it or anything I'm a little anxious about using it. I just read the story about the guy from Katrina that was asked to give back pretty much all the money they gave him to fix his house because they "overestimated" its worth(even though it cost him about $80,000 more than they gave him to fix it) and I keep hearing about how this money is putting our country in even more debt. . . I know it's stupid to think of but what if they decide to take it back? Thoughts about the "incentive package"?

Do you mean the "economic stimulus package"? That shit irritates me... Does anyone else think it is just a ridiculous concept? Did the IRS over-tax us all year, just to give it back to us as a "present" so we wouldn't try to dismantle their unconstitutional "service" to our country's citizens?

I know so many situations where they've done it before . . . but mostly to individual people not in large masses though. I just wonder what if they gave me too much? I thought it was supposed to be between $300 and $600 for individuals and I got the max and I didnt expect that. I mean I don't have kids or anything so why the max you know?

Too bad Ron Paul was excluded from the media coverage...he planned to dissolve the IRS and cancel the federal income tax.
People with kids will get more than you Lndry, just enjoy the extra $600.

I'd like to say that money might be better spent paying off our national debt, but considering our current administration it'd probably just go to buying more smart bombs. I used $200 of mine on food, beer and gas, the rest is going towards my credit card.

Yeah Its pretty much like our country is spending all this money on the war and now they are taking out a loan to give us money so we spend it and forget all our problems and not think that this money is almost making the USD value lower because we are borrowing money to make people spend it. . .

I really hope to get this check, but I still don't know all of the criteria to get it. I've heard that nearly anyone who files taxes and doesn't owe money will get a check, but I also heard that you had to of worked full time all year.
Is the latter true?
