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.

It's the same rhetoric that the neoliberal, free trade politicians like to push. If I may, think back to 911. What was one of the first things that we were all urged to do....SHOP! And we did, and we can some say for the most part, we "recovered." You are right. The little bit of extra cash will indeed be paid on absolutes, and not a Wii. At least, I won't be.
