Rebate Check
« on: April 23, 2008, 01:21:24 AM »
Well we should be getting a rebate check to stimulate our economy, at least that is what the administration tells us. But will it?

If we spend that money at Wal-Mart, Target or K-mart  all the money will go to China.
If we spend it on gasoline it will go to the Arabs.
If we purchase a computer it will go to India.
If we purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras, and Guatemala.
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.
We need to keep that money here in America. The only way to keep that money here at home is to spend it at yard sales, since those are the only businesses still in the U.S.

I say we buy pennies with it !


what do you say?

Cuz, you never had a massage until one of those Japanese Mamsans does a dance on your back.....
