An article in my paper today states that one of the Congressmen hopes that "people will use this rebate to buy a big screen plasma TV, or book a trip to Disneyland." We won't be getting much of a rebate - our income is too high, thanks to tha fact that the company where we work would rather pay overtime than hire more people to do the work that needs to be done. So I just pay for my trips myself.....

I'm with Slappy. The government should pay down its debt, or even better, lower the tax rates. That will also stimulate the economy, and eventually yield more taxable income to pay down the debt. Giving away money so we can buy a Wii (made in Japan) is not the way to do this.
As an aside: I always have a hard time getting my mind around how many people carry a huge credit card debt. My ex-wife asked me why I'm so crazy about paying off my Visa bill each month... "Why don't you have a balance like a 'normal' person."

I am going to hop into my little bubble and love fact that my boyfriend and I each file seperatly with each claiming one of our two children so it's $1800 coming back for braces and school clothes so I can keep saving for my WDW trip!!
Dont care if it was mine to begin with or who thinks it should go to pay some other debt. :shrug:

Generally I am political in my views. However I know I live in an expensive neck of the woods and $900 makes me happy for a hot minute.

I thinkin that DW and our 7 little tax stimulas incentives, AKA Kids, will be investing the $$ in a few more DVC points! Get to use it now and continue to use it till 2054....:sohappy:

And if you find a country where you can live on paper, have at it!:ROFLOL:
For years, my Detroit Tigers looked good on paper...didn't help, because they played on grass, where they looked terrible. Now they look good on both!

And now we know why she's an EX-wife. :lol:
Luckily, I married a woman who is as allergic to credit card debt as I am.

I don't think the answer to this has been made clear. I believe, however, that what it means is that up to $300 of the amount is a true rebate for some people -- that is, it will be paid whether it offsets taxes or not. I don't know if the child $300 amount will be a true rebate or not. Much playing still to come as the Senate debates this stuff, so stay tuned.

As with all things, it appears to me that some parts work and some don't.
For example, I am for universal health care in theory. I don't like to think that there are people in the US who will get worse health care for real illnesses than I would get, because I have money and insurance, and they don't.
On the other hand, I've experienced UK national health care through an unfortunate twist of fate, and I would much prefer a US hospital to the one I visited in London, despite that one being one of the top facilities in the UK.
So it's a good thing that everybody in the UK can get health care, but the standard of care, while perhaps higher than what the uninsured may get in the US, is noticeably lower than I am used to.

It also depends where in the US your healthcare comes from. Compared to FL, where I last lived in the US, NHS is IMO quite an improvement. But to each his own.

We upgraded to the Wilderness Lodge for our June trip. We love POR, but we decided to try the Wilderness Lodge. I hope the upgrade was worth half of our refund.

As a first time tax payer, I just want to say thank you for saying this. It makes me feel better.

for everyone using this money (if & when approved) be careful. all it is, is a early rebate of your money you would get back at the end of the year. so if you expect to get that big check at the end of the year to pay for xmas gifts it wont be there. happened to me a few years ago when we got the 600 back during the summer....just a heads up incase someone did not know that
