How I plan to spend my $1200 stimulus package
$400 for the Dem nominee
$400 for the DSCC
$400 for the DCCC

Honestly, I make plenty of money... as it seems that those of us only paying SS will get the rebate that's what I plan to do!

Getting Dems in control in DC is the best way I can think of to stimulate the economy.

8. That is my point. I don't even live in NYC, and I make well more than 75K, but
could really use the money.....

9. We have insurance our co-pay is......
$300.00. After we pay this it is 80-20 up to $5,000 a piece. Then 100%. Our premium is over $800 a month. After two years we are still paying for a heart cath.
