It looks like Congress and the President has agreed on a stimulus plan. Now I can finally buy that pound of schwag weed and go into the pot business.

More reactions from

Aunt Bee- Will we get $300? Will we get $800? I’m hoping for $800, only because I’d like to put it towards my medical debt, which will stimulate the economy by… um… okay, I’ll put some towards my medical debt and blow some at Amazon.

Say Uncle- So, here’s the question: If the government can stimulate the economy and that is allegedly good for the economy, why don’t they do it every day? Need a hint? The government can’t control the economy.

Jackson Miller- Are you kidding me?!?! Are we really going to use $150 billion in debt to send out checks to the American people in an effort to stimulate the economy? Do you know what that sounds like to me? Addiction.

Sarcastro-President Bush’s economic stimulus package sucks. It just sucks. I am not getting how this will help anything except the retail sector.

The Munchkin Wrangler- So the government is planning to carpet-bomb the electorate with tax refund checks, in the hopes that Mr. and Mrs. Sixpack are going to go out to MalWart and blow their windfall on a flat-panel TV or something.

Opinari.net- I shouldn’t complain about a sudden $2100 windfall, but I still don’t believe this is a necessary move by our federal government.

Hear It From Us- It has to make you wonder–how good would the economy be if they’d just let us keep it in the first place?

Stephen Douglas Maloney- I come back to my desk to find out that there is an economic stimulus deal already reached by two parties that are allegedly bitterly divided. It seems that when the commonwealth is threatened, nothing can stop people from working together to do something about it.

Roger Abramson- OK, I’m sorry, but I seem to recall Democrats bitching and moaning about this sort of thing back in 2001 and 2002 when the Republicans did it.

Crone Speaks- Perhaps that $300 per child should be used towards food stamp increases and unemployment compensation extensions. But, screw the unemployed, let’s leave them behind too.

Preston of Six Meat- If it weren’t so easy to predict, I’d say that I had extra sensationary perceptions. President Junior and his Kongressional Kronies are close to deal to hand free money out to the unwashed masses.

The Roundtable- Regardless of the fact of whether this will work or not, overall it is a decent compromise. Still, people that don’t pay taxes get a rebate (but it is less than the full one).
