So? Send it back!
Apparently lots of folks don’t need $600. At least that’s the impression I get. Lots of people are bitching about how $600 won’t help anything, and that the stimulus package is bullshit, and so on and so on.
I guess we have to go through this every few years. The government offers a few bucks back to people, and the righteous indignation starts with people saying it isn’t enough and so on. Lots of people, tongue-in-cheekly, tell the world that the President should be using that money on ____________________ and this is just a waste.
Fine.
Send yours back!
Seriously. Take the $600 check (or $1200 if you file jointly) and send it back.
This way, you can send a message that you aren’t going to be bribed by a few lousy dollars in your pocket. Or better yet, send it to me. I could use the $1200. First initial last name at gmail dot com. I’d be happy to take that great burden of a check off your hands.
Honestly, people, this is easily fixable, so please stop your bellyachin’. Nobody has a gun to your head forcing you to take the money so if you don’t want it, don’t take it.
Or, if you’re too lazy to send it back to the government…
I wonder how many complainers will just cash the check and use the money… My guess is most, if not all, of them.
How about you?
