OPEN FORUM: So Whaddya gonna do with your $13?
Hey, looks like the average Joes and Jills are going to get a whole $13 extra a week thanks to the "stimulus" bill. So, what are YOU gonna do with all that extra coin?
Buy ammunition.

There's deflation, no inflation. Why do towns need more money? They should be giving it back. They must have budgeted petroleum energy at a much higher rate last year than they're paying now. That must be a surplus in the budget, no?

The brain damaged "progressives" will be back for another trillion in July. Count on it.

Of course, without real jobs, they'll have plenty of time to eat those donuts but those who voted for the ObamaMama will get 'crow' as a topping.
