No one is talking about it, maybe they are afraid to admit that it didn't do a damn thing, and actually devalued our dollar.

It will go down in history as a huge failure by the goverment.

Same here. I'm expecting them to do it again in November - just in time for holiday shopping (especially considering the very bad back-to-school retail sales report that helped bring down the Dow today).

Yeah they don't want to admit that the current financial situation could be much worse than expected.

You and me both man...

I bought an Xbox 360, GTA 4, and a big bag of weed.

I got stoned and killed cops for weeks.

Thank you federal government!

The stimulus checks are doing exactly what they intended them to do. De-value our dollar.

Step 1: Devalue our dollar.
Step 2: Crash economy
Step 3: Chaos
Step 4. Form Noth American Union and introduce Amero.

Order out of chaos. New World Order tactics.

The only thing the stimulus check did for us is save us from paying interest on credit cards. We used the whole thing to pay off a couple of credit cards, one which we used to put insulation in our house so we wouldn't have high heating bills...That's all the check did, so I guess in a way, I should thank George Bush in not letting money go to the banks, LOL...At least that's what I think, I don't have a clue where interest goes, all I know is I pay a load of it...

Except for the weed you technically did do what the government wanted. Congrats on helping out TTWO & MSFT.

A lot of people used their stimulus checks to pay down debt, which improved banks' reserve ratios. I am convinced that this was the principal objective (no pun intended).
