Stimulating

Stolen from Jenn's blog.

This year, taxpayers will receive an Economic Stimulus Payment. This is a very exciting new program that I will explain using the Q and A format:

Q. What is an Economic Stimulus Payment?
A. It is money that the federal government will send to taxpayers.

Q. Where will the government get this money?
A. From taxpayers.

Q. So the government is giving me back my own money?
A. Only a smidgen.

Q. What is the purpose of this payment?
A. The plan is that you will use the money to purchase a high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the economy.

Q. But isn’t that stimulating the economy of China ?
A. Shut up

You forgot to mention that if you are a military family, every 4th month your spouse works for free since he's paid with tax money and he also pays taxes :)

Don't give me credit for it... I took it from another blog (Ctrl + C) and by the time I logged on to my blog, I forgot which blog I took it from!
