If you make over like 3k a year as a individual then you will get 600 a person. If you make less then 3k ( Taxable) then it is like 300 a person. ( Retired, disabled, unemployed, etc.)

The way I understand it is between 3k and like 85k or so and its $600 single $1200 married.

if EVERYBODY in america bought some kind of Treasury fund (T-Bill) with that retarded *** "advance" it would spur a rally on the dollar. That would in turn cause the crude oil price to dip some. That would be more productive in the long run. I just thought of that, listening to the news yesterday, this crude oil trader was trying to explain how the it's not just speculation but the weakness of the dollar that is wrecking havic on crude oil.

What is the expected IRS payout supposed to be? Imagine if every dollar of it went into a treasury fund. WOW. It would be like a corporation buying its stock back. Creates strength.

Okay, been at work for 26 hours now...i need to go home.
