Wow. How much did you get? Does it go to everyone or is it income determined? Must be nice to have some extra cash!
That said, what a BS economic recovery plan. Makes me laugh and it reminds me of the crazy Canadian premier who one time proposed that to boost the economy he would just start printing his own currency -- at least he won an election that way (It didn't work). Maybe this is GW's attempt to help McBush? Do people/pundits think this is actually a useful measure, apart from winning some (potential) PR which I gather Bush needs in a baaaad way?
Another premier, Ralph of Alberta (which is rolling in oil revenues) gave people in his province $ too-- Ralph Bucks, as they were called. There were calls for a giant boycott-- for people to send it back to tell ole Ralphy to put this $ back into the social programs he sliced and diced (health care), but noone I know did. LOL. Can't blame 'em either, even tho its a stupid waste of money. I could find a million and one uses for a few hundred bucks.
