Sometime this year, we taxpayers may again receive
an Economic Stimulus
payment.
This is a very exciting new
program. I will explain it using the Q and A format:
Q. What
is an Economic Stimulus payment?
A. It is money that the federal government
will send to taxpayers.
Q. Where will the government get this
money?
A. From taxpayers.
Q. So the government is giving
me back my own money?
A. Only a smidgen.
Q. What is the
purpose of this payment?
A. The plan is that you will use the money to
purchase a high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the
economy.
Q. But isn't that stimulating the
economy of China
?
A. Shut up
Below is some helpful advice on how to best
help the US economy by spending your
stimulus check wisely:
• If you spend the stimulus money at
Wal-Mart, the money will go to China .
• If you spend it on
gasoline, your money will go to the Arabs.
• If you purchase a
computer, it will go to India
.
• If you purchase fruit and vegetables, it will go to Mexico,
Honduras and Guatemala .
• If you buy a
car, it will go to Japan
.
• If you purchase useless stuff, it will go to Taiwan
.
• If you pay your credit cards off, or buy stock, it will go to
management bonuses and they will hide it offshore.
Instead,
keep the money in America by:
1
spending it at yard
sales, or
2 going to ball games, or
3 spending it on
prostitutes, or
4 beer or
5 tattoos.
(These are the
only American businesses still operating in the US .)
A true
American will therefore go to a ball game and drink beer with a
tattooed prostitute that you met at a yard sale!
