The “Stimulus” Package…

vanquish2 is nonsense. Unless you’re one of the filthy rich nepotism twins – Alexis Stewart or Jennifer Koppelman – Martha Stewarts daughter and her little fat friend - and mommy or daddy gives you a Mercedes or Aston Martin for, well, just being you, then you’re just like the rest of us and you have to pay for everything with real money that you have to work for. What a concept! But let’s pretend for a second that I’m “our” government and I think getting a care is going to help “stimulate” the economy.

1. I have no money whatsoever to pay for this really expensive car.

2. It doesn’t matter – a Chevy just won’t do.

3. I could fix my old car or even walk, take the bus or “hitch” a ride.

4. I call my friend, Loo-Fong in “Communist” China.

5. He “lends” me the money.

6. The payments, with interest, are an astounding $2500 a month.

7. I can’t afford it, but it doesn’t matter.

8. To “supplement” what Loo-Fong sends me…

9. I use my Lexmark to print up a whole bunch of new dollar bills.

10. It doesn’t matter because the Treasury is doing the same thing.

11. I provide people low paying “jobs” to wash, wax and gas the car.

12. I give Mexicans jobs to make the tires, batteries and spare parts.

13. I can’t afford it, but it doesn’t matter

14. I pass the debt onto my son when I die.

This is how the “stimulus” works. It is a joke. 3-4 millions jobs? How? I say no way – Jose. We CANNOT trust “our” government to spend the money honestly and efficiently.
