It seems like we are about to get a little pat on the head. With people going hungry and loosing their homes they have to look for a way to keep us from revolting. $300 doesn't even come close to replacing the money that bush and cheney's friends from the oil companies have stole from me with their high gas prices. 1  out of 1 found this valuable.

rbank when u say "$300" u actually trivialize the number. It is a meaningful number for our very poor citizens; but for most of us the real number to be concerned about is $100-150 billion. In the long run who's going to pay for this "little pat on the head?" Will we just write IOUs (add to our $10 trillion debt)? Or will congress do the right thing and raise taxes on Wall Street investment banks and brokers. I would support a $1 tax on every single equity share and futures contract traded (both buy and sell sides) until this stimulus is paid for in full. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

I myself would rather use $10 trillion helping the vets returning from Iraq, buying people the medications that they need, repairing our roads and upgrading our schools. I think if our debt was reduced the value of our dollar would go up. Do you find this valuable?
