The s. bill has no rebate check in it but has a cut in the workers weekly pay check.
The president's signature tax cut was preserved — a break for millions of lower- and middle-income taxpayers of $400 per individual and $800 per couple. That's less than the $500 and $1,000 the White House originally sought, although officials said it would mean an estimated $13 per week extra per paycheck.
My daughter will be mad, she was gung-ho for Obama because she thought she was getting a rebate check and I am not going to tell her she is not getting the mad money. There is a one time payment to people drawing suicidal security of $250.00 but if I understand right it was for people who draw the bare minimum money so that leaves me out. Maybe I can tell her it was the Republicans who cut her rebate check. LOL. by the way suicidal security is not a misspelled word.

I guess with the extra $13 we can buy some tainted peanut butter...
Oil prices are falling and gas prices are rising...something seems to be out of wack.
You shouda axed me. I couda told you that you were wrong.
It is 45 here this morning....It has been cold to me all week...high in the 60's but I still feel cold...
My real approach to the government growth bill is "What the hell, they're going to do what they want to do, and we have no power to stop them." Yeah ... a big shout-out and thank you to our voters who thought it would be a good idea to put the big-government, Social-Democrat Party in complete control in Washington DC.
Somehow Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and the Democrats in Congress have managed to make this government growth package go from bad to worse. It seems as though their main goal was not in the details, but in making sure that they got the total number under $800 billion ... they assume that $789 billion is an easier number for the public to stomach. Yeah, right. It sure feels a lot better to me. Trouble is, with debt service this is still well over one trillion dollars. That's alottazeros.
What we got in the end was a bill that is two-thirds spending and the rest are "tax cuts". The "tax cuts," of course, are government handout checks. Welfare. For the most part, these spending projects are funding the Democrat platform: green energy, universal healthcare, "tax cuts" for the middle class and poor. Obama's signature "Making Work Pay" tax credit is going to provide an extra $13 a week in take-home pay. $13 whole dollars! What are you going to buy with that?? That's $1.86 a day! Now you get out there and spend that extra two bucks (almost) a day to get our economy moving again, you hear?
Meanwhile, tax credits for new home purchases and cars has been wiped off the map. But don't worry, those people who aren't paying income taxes are going to have an extra $13 in their pockets!
Has every good little citizen gone out and purchased your latest copy of Vogue magazine? After all Michelle Obama is on the cover .. and aren't you just dying to see what designer made her dress or what color her nails are painted? I bet you that more Americans are aware of the fact that Michelle is on the cover of Vogue than are aware that the cover story of the latest Newsweek is titled "We're all Socialists Now." Our power-hungry congress has just run off with the financial future of your children and grandchildren. Well .. at least we all know what's important.
