A Direct stimulus check to consumers,would work better than Obama's Tax cuts.

I believe I direct Stimulus check payment would stimulate the economy better than a drawn
out tax cut. People need a large infusion of cash now, not a trickle down increase in revenue, as is the case with Obama's current economic stimulus plan.

A check to every America of $5,000.00 dollars should do the trick to stimulate spending once again in America.Do the math, that adds up to just about $700.00 Billon doesn't it?

How will Obama and the Democrat-controlled Congress pay off their friends if they do that?

300,000,000 people x $5,000 per person = $1,500,000,000,000

About $1.5 Trillion.

Hell we've already given that much to the BANKING class haven't we?

It would be a good idea to start using facts to make our decisions than using "I wish this were true" ideas to make desicions.

Bush proved that one pretty solidly.

Writing that $5,000.00 stimulus check silly.

It wont work if the majority of it goes into savings.

This is why stimulus aimed at the poorest works best , they have to put it right back into the economy to survive.

Sad but the truth is crap is what most would spend it on.

 

[Truthmatters]

And why is that?

Because the mega corps like Walmart that we have been bitching about for years.

You guys helped do this to us.

You guys who are you lumping together there?

The truth is the majority of people when they have a few extra bucks buy a lot of worthless crap before they spend the money on things of necessity.
