How much money is everyone supposed to get from this thing?
Or does it depend on how much you make?
I got a check last time around, but it was peanuts..
Not sure how giving everyone a few hundred bucks is going to
stimulate the economy.. 
I don't see this ending very well.... :mad:
I like classy, beautiful, intelligent woman that say the "F" word a lot....

It would be nice to get money from the government, but i personally cant see it doing much for the economy!  Didnt help much last time, a year or two ago, why would it help now??

This stimulus bill is the largest theft of money in history. When will you wake up?

How so?? Im quiet curious to find out more info on it.  Doesnt seem to be any tax cuts, just a lot of "giving" money away to spend to boost the economy.  Most people would just spend it on bills or hotel rooms because they were forced out of their house.....

The House stimulus package includes aid to states and localities to help them avoid cuts in Medicaid coverage and school funding. The bill also would extend unemployment benefits and give unemployed workers subsidies for health care coverage. The legislation also would fund infrastructure improvements and investments in energy efficiency and alternative energy projects.

Most of the tax relief in the bill would go to individuals, including a $500 refundable tax credit for low- and middle-income workers.

Businesses would get $20 billion in tax cuts under the legislation. The bill would extend provisions enacted for 2008 that allow businesses of all sizes to depreciate 50 percent of investments in new equipment immediately. It also would allow small businesses to expense $250,000 of new capital expenditures instead of depreciating the cost over time, an increase in the Section 179 limit that previously was enacted for 2008.

The legislation also would allow businesses to carry back net operating losses for five years, instead of the current limit of two years. This provision would generate cash through tax refunds for companies that now are losing money but previously were profitable.

i dunno if it will hurt or help, i just know everythings going downhill and something needs to be done

Where did you get that? The last one doesnt make sense to me but I havent heard anything about tax cuts in the bill.

That bit about unemployment? Is that extending unemployment compensation for people already on the unemployment rolls or extending it to part-time workers?
