If we purchase a good car it will go to Japan.
If we purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan.
and none of it will help the American economy.
The only way to keep that money here at home is to buy prostitutes, weed, beer, and tattoos, since these are the only products still produced in the USA.
Thank you for your help & please support the US.

your parents will get your stimulus payment, unless their AGI is above the phase out limit.

The Federal Government is sending each and everyone of us a $300+ rebate.

You can spend it on a nice Smith & Wesson M&P15FT and it'll stay right here in the good ole US of A!!if you don't know what it is, I suggest using google.
The check would be a down payment on the 15 FT, I prefer the Colt M4.
