umm, yeah do you know realize that the "stimulus check" is basically an advance on your next year's tax return, and you'll have to pay.. you guessed it.. taxes on the damn money. I got the stimulus check and spent it on bills, a lot of good that did all the businesses I didn't stimulate. I have a pretty good job and make pretty good money, but between having to rent a house because I can't get a loan as a first time homebuyer, and health insurance and taxes, I can't save any money to get a loan to buy a house, rents are therefore skyrocketing because people know that the people who can't get loans have to live somewhere. I could blame bush, but it won't do any good, and both the Republican and Democratic candidates are going to screw things up just as well if not worse. At least I haven't heard any plans that sound any good. Obama wants to turn the country Socialist, its bad enough we're basically Capitalist like McCain wants to keep it. We're just a few steps away from Communism.
