There's talk about the Government giving every taxpaying American a check for $800 in order to stimulate the economy. My reckoning is that in most cases, the money will be used to pay off debt -- credit cards, home equity loans, etc. -- instead of making new purchases.
On an unrelated note, I don't think Dr. Phil should have blabbed about Britney's condition. Just because one is a celebrity doesn't mean they lose their right to privacy.

Second, an MH professional at any level is not supposed to talk about their clients with anyone outside of their treatment team without express consent. So, Dr. Phil was violating the spirit if not the letter of patient confidentiality. Of course, this is Dr. Phil we're talking about. Someone needs to shrink his swollen head.
