Economic Stimulus Pkg = Free Money!! Bullhockey!!!
I posted this originally as a Bulletin, but so many of those fly by un-noticed, so I posted here too as well as my LJ account.

Yes, they (the Government) are conveniently not telling us the whole truth yet again.  They are making us believe that those checks to everyone that is going to be mailed out

hi :) this will be random, but i was reading other random knoxvillians journals and came across yours. i'm an accountant and wanted to clear the tax rebate stuff up. you are right, in a way, because it is technically called an advance. but you're not going to get it deducted from 2008's taxes... because tax law will change between now and then to cover the amounts going out. so your usual refund for 2008's taxes is what you'll end up with in 2009 regardless.

it's very similar to the checks most people got in summer of 2001.
