Seriously, $600 is going to make a difference in my standard of living. I'm sure many need and welcome it. But isn't borrowing more money to try to boost the economy kind of like giving a drunk another drink to try to get him sober?

Hey if you don't want it you can give it to me. My rebate? $0. But yes, I think it's a stupid idea. It's not going to boost the economy. What would is to increase production of oil in this country to force the reduction of oil prices and become less dependent on the Middle East. .
