living in the bubble

May 3, 2008 by Betmo 

good lord give me some of what bush is drinking because i would be much happier and less aware than i am right now.  and there’s something to be said for that.  he is predicting that a $600-$1200 stimulus check is going to make the economy right as rain.  i guess he’s assuming that folks will be so excited by their windfall that they will rush out and spend to put that money back into the hands of its rightful owners- the corporatocracy.  what the bungler-in-chief doesn’t realize- most folks (up to 70% polled) are going to use the checks to pay down debt or put into savings.  because they know what he apparently doesn’t- the economy is tanking and going down like the titanic.  fyi georgie- the titanic sank.

    Are house payments economically stimulating? If so, I will be contributing to the economic boost.

    Sure enough Betmo– they were interviewing people about their plans for the stimulus $ & many answered pay down debt, some said with layoffs @ work, they are more inclined to save it in case the shit hits the fan & they are the next wave of the pink slipped, laid off workers who are thrust itno a Mvjob market that does not pay enough to stay out of poverty level.
    Uh huh. Heck-of-a-job George.

    I am sick of the fool talking his crap and worse some people buy it. Thinking about it. it could be a very small temporary blip by the masses spending for day to day needs and to help dig out of a hole. However it will only be temporary. I was just looking at your stories, yesterday too. You do yourself an injustice. You deserve to be heard and often times you must write more than one story and those like me do not know it! Rest you deserve it. The warm weather is coming!
