So Chimpy's idea of a stimulus package is to give some tax payers a small rebate check so they will go spend it. If you are real poor don't think you will be getting anything. Even if it works that sounds real temporary. With the way the economy is looking I would be more likely to keep it or payoff some on my credit cards which is paying for past purchases. With all the debt both credit and mortgage is it possible that people are not spending because they can't afford to and even a small check won't change that. Hell with the price of gas most people will use up that money just filling up their car(s). Is this just Bushes way of fending off bad economic times until he is out of office so he can claim that the possible bad economy did not happen on his watch. I am no economist but I would think the strongest way to help the economy would be to get people working in jobs that pay a decent wage not just giving them a one time feel good rebate.
