You guys gonna stimulate the economy or feed the pig?

Total stimulus payments will be about 170 billion, or about 5-7% of this years federal tax receipts

LOLZTRONGASKETGOOGLEPLEXION This guy has almost 20k posts. I think you're the one whos *** probably hurts, ****, you better have a nice temper pedic cushin on your computer chair

Exhibit A

you have yet to explain how i'm the loser here. Partake in smoking all you like, just don't complain when McDonalds is the only place that will hire you.

People who partake in marijuana work prallel to you as well. To think otherwise is naive. Of coure I am fairly certain this comment was made specifically for SD and not a general statement made about an entire group of people.

You must be living in the past, because McDonalds wont hire white people any more FYI

Exhibit B (racist)

Maybe its just because i've never had to apply there, because i know my piss is clean.

Plenty people beat piss tests for hiring or quit long enough to get a job. Not many places do random screening after hiring.

Whats wrong with being proud of being gay?

It's like being proud of anything you are naturally born with. It's retarded. I'm happy if you're happy, but why do I have to see you parade down the fuggin street?
PS: The "you" in my replies doesn't literally mean you, but more of the general "you".

Most places in my state dont have a mandatory drug test, and my piss is clean too. I'm just a pro cannabis advocated. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

my philosophy
If we spend that money at Wal-Mart, all the money will go to China.

Um wrong, the majority of most companies' incomes go to payroll, which are americans. Plus the profits will stay here and be taxed... sure a large chunk of COGS will go abroad but that will come back in the form of foreign investment.

If we spend it on gasoline it will all go to the Arabs,

Actually we get ~50% of our oil/gasoline from canada/mexico/local production or other non-arab sources.

if we purchase a computer it will all go to India,

Umm not really... american companies might make the stuff overseas but the profits and a majority of the costs will stay here (labor costs)

if we purchase fruit and vegetables it will all go to Mexico, Honduras, and Guatamala,

This is likely true, but still the some of the costs will stay here depending on where you buy it

if we purchase a good car it will all go to Japan,

True but many are made in america, but after the labor is paid the profits are shipped abroad

if we purchase sh!tty car audio it will all go to Taiwan and none of it will help the American economy.

Then buy quality. And the local retailer will retain some of the money...

I know your post was essentially a joke but shoot from the hip economics is a pet peeve of mine... Economics should be a required high school course.

We need to keep that money here in America, so the only way to keep that money here at home is to buy prostitutes and beer, since those are the only businesses still in the US!!!

and who says you have to spend it at all? Put it in savings, so the dollar can be devalued more an more against both the euro and yen.

Not sure...hair and polygraph tests make me think otherwise...but it is still possible.

For government it is quite different Flip. Most companies don't go with hair tests and polygraph. So on that specific scenario, you would be correct.

But that doesn't say they don't abuse other substances...I think ,in general terms, all substance abuse has social harms. While we test heavily against some subtsances, it is not uncommon for folks to arrive some mornings hung over from the night before.

I fully agree. It doesn't matter what the substance is. If it is abused it poses potential harm. Illegal, Legal, Natural, or Synthetic, it makes no difference really.
