Buy American and keep our money in the USA
« on: January 03, 2021, 07:59:02 pm »
Sometime this year, we taxpayers will again receive another 'Economic Stimulus' payment.
 
This is indeed a very exciting program, and I'll explain it by using a Q & A format:
 

Q. What is an 'Economic Stimulus' payment ?
 
A. It is money that the federal government will send to taxpayers.
 

Q. Where will the government get this money ?
 
A. From taxpayers.
 

Q. So the government is giving me back my own money ?
 
A. Only a smidgen of it.
 

Q. What is the purpose of this payment ?
 
A. The plan is for you to use the money to purchase a   ;   high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the economy.
 

Q. But isn't that stimulating the economy of China ?
 
A. Shut up.
 

Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the U.S. Economy by spending your stimulus check wisely:
 

* If you spend the stimulus money at Wal-Mart, the money will      ;   go to China or Sri Lanka .
 

* If you spend it on gasoline, your money will go to the Arabs.
 

* If you purchase a computer, it will go to India , Taiwan or      ;   China ...
 

* If you purchase fruit and vegetables, it will go to Mexico , Honduras and Guatemala ...
 
* If you buy an efficient car, it will go to Japan or Korea .
 
* If you purchase useless stuff, it will go to Taiwan .
 
* If you pay your credit cards off, or buy stock, it will go  ;   to management bonuses and they will hide it offshore.
 
Instead, keep the money in America by:
 
1) Spending it at yard sales, or
 
2) Going to ball games, or
 
3) Spending it on prostitutes, or
 
4) Beer or
 
5) Tattoos.
 
(These are the only American businesses still operating in the U.S. )
 
Conclusion:
 
Go to a ball game with a tattooed prostitute that you met at a yard    ;   sale and drink beer all day !
 

No need to thank me, I'm just glad I could be of help.

We could give the money back to The government, by looking at the list, I am sure they would save it for a rainy day and only spend it on really important things. :wink:

I assume the prostitute has to be american and not an illegal immigrant?  I can't afford american on my social security.
I thought the whole point of the check was to help people in need not stimulate the economy.  The vaccine will stimulate the economy.  Let's get that done.  Let's give the money to people in need.  Those that lost their job and can't go back to work not people who have a job.

Ace, pay attention to where you are.
