Its political pandering, Bush has a part in it also.

Ah, but things were so much different then:
A. The Republicans had control of the government then.
B. We were not engulfed in a trillion dollar plus (look, I'm so sick of it, I don't even know what he latest figures are and I don't want to look them up) war at the time.
Um, wait, isn't that reason enough right there NOT to consider tax rebates? As much as I would like a $900 check coming to me from the government soon, I can't see how it makes sense in today's economic situation.
Do you think this really might just be an attempt by the Democrats to buy our votes? No, just ask TM, the Dems would never stoop so low.

For it is by Grace you have been saved, through faith -- and this not of yourselves, it is the gift of God -- not by works, so that no one can boast. Eph 2:8-9
“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
Or maybe it is because I don't believe that this will help all that much and that it is simply the Democrats trying to buy your vote.
Remember, most people only care about what you have done for them lately. Do you really think the Democratic Nominee won't be running on... "geez, remember that $300/family member check you got in...", let's see when will we get them? October. "I supported that, in fact, I authored the idea in the first place." Just like Al Gore fathered the Internet.

I don't pay no income tax, will I get a check. If not screw it. Tho I may have a job before this thing goes through.
Don't feel left out. Pelosi wants your vote too.
From the link:
Seeing as how she is only willing to give you $300, she doesn't value your vote as much as mine! My vote, of course, she will most likely not be getting nor is it likely a Republican will get it either.Individuals who pay income taxes would get up to $600, working couples $1,200 and those couples with children an additional $300 per child under the deal. Workers who make at least $3,000 but don't pay taxes would get $300 rebates.

Now that rocks, go Pelosi. Us poor limited tax payers need checks too.who make at least $3,000 but don't pay taxes would get $300 rebates.

I don't see why the gov. would give a TAX REBATE to people who DON'T pay taxes in the first place.
Nothing against the poor, I've been there.
People who make to little to pay taxes already quality for food stamps, welfair, free healthcare, free lunch (schools) and in many states free college. WHY do they need MY tax dollars on top of this??
It is really easy to understand. They want the votes from whomever they can purchase them from. $600/person of unearned (for them) money or should I say, $600 of your money returned to you, is a cheap price to pay for control of Congress and the pork barrel spending for the next four years.
Not at all hard to figure out.
