My parents didn't because we apparently make too much to qualify. ::)
If so, what are you gonna spend the money on?
yeah, I think my mom did. She'll probably pay bills with it. Which is good.

If you mean those checks that people are getting for the economic problems going on right now, we haven't gotten them yet. My family is kind of poor right now. :(
I'm supposedly getting one, however most of the actual checks haven't been sent out yet. Those who did direct deposit will receive it first (which means if I receive one, it'll be in the next week or two). My parents said I should be getting one, since I wasn't filed as a dependent this year, and made over $3K last year.
My parents get 600 for themselves, 300 extra for my sister, and I get 300.

My parents are probably getting one soon.

Congress passed the Act this year.
It's pretty much a tax refund sent out to stimulate the economy so the country doesn't go into recession (Which I predict will happen anyway when the war is over). Unmarried people get $300 and married get $600.
This can explain better. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_Stimulus_Act_of_2008)

IMO, the democrats intercourse ed up putting the "minorities" in for this election. It's like those "dream teams" for baseball, but these guys aren't that "strong" in a sense. We have a woman who's not getting ANY respect, and a half black, half white, half Muslim mutt (or in 4Chan's eyes, a n_gger), and McCain who COULD intercourse the country up even more, but Guliani would have been worse. It could have waited a few terms.

There's a limit? I guess those families with the five or six kids are a little disappointed at that.
Also, can someone tell me where this money is coming from? If it's coming from the taxes, wouldn't money be taken from another thing to make up for that, or is this stuff adding to the debt as well?

It's just being added to our national debt. Which is currently over $9 trillion.

I'm not complaining, I just said $600 isn't that much. It won't get you anything these days. I consider $1000 and up a lot.
