I guess the house insulation industry will benefit tho! my 950 will go on the mortgage which i'll assume most ppl with a mortgage will do. i think the worst is yet to come. i can hardly see this splurge of tax payers money fixing the problem. we've got to ride this one out

....nice pasta and currys oh and some drinks

nah dude its already been released that every child atending schoool also gets $950ea, just have to wait and see if it let through, im unsure now due to the bushfires this weekend, R.I.P to the men woman and childern who didnt survive our hearts go out

I thought it was $400 per child?

400 per child is the bushfire thing

$950 these days wont get you far.. Ill make the most of it and spend a few hours at the "California Club" - Yeah wow Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Quote: Originally Posted by PACMAN Havnt done a tax return for 11 years Guess i will be getting jack. yeh, this is a smart way for the govt to also encourage people to do old tax returns that may have slipped their minds be careful they will get you eventually, better to make an effort to do them then they will cut you some slack. Otherwise you also cop hefty penalties.

YOU NEED TO HELP THE ECONOMY!!! Important Information on the Stimulus Payment "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." Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the Economy by spending your stimulus check wisely: If you spend that money at K-Mart, all the money will go to China. If you spend it on petrol it will go to the Arabs. If you purchase a computer it will go to India. If you purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to South East Asia or New Zealand (unless you buy organic). If you buy a car it will go to Japan. If you purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan. And none of it will help the economy. We need to keep that money here. You can keep the money here by spending it at garage sales, going to a football game, or spending it on prostitutes, beer or tattoos, since those are the only businesses still here.

Yehhhhhh for the $950 payment isnt it costing us tax payers $3000 per person? So basically we are paying an extra $2050 in taxes?
