Its retarded if you stop to think about it.... there giving you $600 to spend because they have caused inflation and other such economic repercussions that most people are having trouble affording everyday items(oil) and such... but we dont have the money to do it so we inflate the currency to give you $600 WTF!!!!!!!!! lol its retarded...

**legobricks** · 01-24-2008, 02:11 PM

becuase a lot of us pay way more then that in and normally get double that (600$ you mentioned) back at the end of the year. Thats why it would suck.

i have to agree the whole concept doesnt make sense to me either, its like giving pepto bismol to someone for a broken arm

**legobricks** · 01-24-2008, 02:12 PM

**largerthannormal** · 01-24-2008, 02:16 PM

**legobricks** · 01-24-2008, 02:16 PM

sorry if this sounds dumb as im not too into the economy and all that. So this means that we are getting $600 extra then what we would normally get from our tax returns?

**Kratos** · 01-24-2008, 02:16 PM

Ummmm, this is in addition to your nomal refund dude.

Proximity to election tell me it's for polictical reasons. And nobody wants to be the guy they ask the question "so senator, you voted against giving money back to the American people, why?"

They play the same game with gas prices releasing some from emergency reserves to lower prices durring tough times like after 9-11 and elections.

**legobricks** · 01-24-2008, 02:18 PM

WHOAH! 600 bucks on top of your refund???? WOW! maybe ill get to cycle quicker then expected!

It is in addition to your tax refund, not in place of it....

yep, to "stimulate the economy",lol

**longhorn814** · 01-24-2008, 02:43 PM

well if you make more than 75K adjusted gross income and are single it will be less than 600 as well as married couples over 150K AGI....i'll be sure to get a couple extra kits of HGH thanks to the govt!!

**largerthannormal** · 01-24-2008, 02:45 PM

so will this take affect this return???

**longhorn814** · 01-24-2008, 02:53 PM

no this is in addition to whatever tax return you may or may not get this year..it will not effect it in any way

**legobricks** · 01-24-2008, 02:55 PM

Knock knock dummy you get 600$ more then what you normally get back. That means what you normally get back plus an extra $600. get it now? Hahahahaha

**dupa95** · 01-24-2008, 02:58 PM

The only reason there doing this is to keep us from not banning together, and keep our mouths shut about the gas prices. Just a government distraction. look at the money and not the phuckin we are realin getin ( and yes the extra cash will be sweet)

Its not a law. Its a one time thing. Like "Hey we have been dicks. Here's some money".

**Kratos** · 01-24-2008, 03:08 PM

I can see you are having a hard time wrapping your mind around this one larger. There is no law, life goes on as usual, you file no papers. You go to the mailbox one day and there is a check in there. You think to yourself "self, where did this check come from, did santa claus leave it here? Huh it says US govt. on it and looks like a tax return check."

In other words they voted to send you a check, should take somewhere between weeks and months for you to get it. Enjoy it, stimulate the economy with it, vote for the people who voted to send it to you. Get it?
