    Socialism is a failed experiment

    Amazing how stupid people are to not learn or study history. All communist and socialist governments fail in the long run. It will drive the demise of America even quicker.

    Are you claiming that people who make more than $75,000 are “rich”?

    Most of the middle class (those between $75k – 200k) are the ones paying the MOST taxes. What do you mean 8 years of welfare?

    How is *stealing* from those who strive to save their money and distributing it to those that don’t not moral hazard? Did we not go through this in New Orleans where they issued prepaid credit cards to the poor and they used them in strip clubs? Is this the kind of behavior we want to encourage?

    The message being sent is that the government will distribute free checks from the taxpayer account so the spending can continue!

    The $1200 will be gone but the problems with the economy will remain. The government is running record deficits. Who is going to pay for all these rebates?

    My idea of rich is those that make over 200k a year.

    I guess it all depends on your POV. And its those whom I’m suggesting benefited the most from Dubya’s tax cuts.

    Re:New Orleans. So poor people spent money in strip clubs owned by rich people. Thats pretty much my point, allow the lower classes to retain more of their wealth and everyone benefits.

    And believe me, I’m aware of the record deficits. Maybe we shouldn’t be waging wars on multiple fronts while cutting taxes for hedge fund managers…
