Yup, they paid bills. If they paid bills, they werent in default. The bank isn't going broke. Then, once their bills are paid, they bought more stuff.

I mean really, $13 a week is crap. I give more than that to charity. That won't make a single difference to anyone in the country. I can't even get two big mac meals with that.
just send me your 13 dollars and I'll send you 13 dollars worth of thanks!

When Bush sent $600 per person, the lefties claimed it was total crap, does nothing, and is just a waste of money. Now Obama gives it to you in weekly instalments and its the best idea eva!

For the record, I thought Bush's plan was just as useless as the Obama's plan is when it comes to jump starting the economy. But... I do like money, and I'll take whatever the government want to give me.

So it would stand to reason that you like $600 in one lump sum that you can use to say buy some stock parts for your car. Or, you can save the $13 a week all year and then at the end buy a stock part.... Personally I think waiting for it is silly. He says we need to move fast to get the economy going, then spreads the miniscule help out over a year so that it can't make any impact at all in such small increments.

WTF do you do with $13 a week? Buy a pizza like you said, Steve? That may have been a joke, but it is reality as well. The real joke is the fact that he thinks $13 a week is going to help anyone survive. He's plainly out of touch with reality.

jezzz it's a tax cut - all you GOP folks should be happy
I have no problem with the tax cut. My problem is with the BS that the Bush stimulus sucked, but this is great. It's the same thing on the instalment plan. PLUS, Bush sent a check which meant postal workers had to deliver them.

JOBS!!!
