IRS Uses YouTube to "Get Out the Word" on Rebates

Iria · Mar 26, 2008, 04:01 PM

The tax rebates that are supposed to inject a stimulus into the U.S. economy, as I hope you realize, will only come to those who file taxes this year. And the IRS wants to make sure you know about it. So they've taken an unprecedented step. They have posted a video on YouTube (below) advertising it.

My friend sent me an interesting e-mail about this economic stimulus:

Quote:

Subject: FW: $600 IRS Rebate

The federal government is sending each and every one of us a $600 rebate. If we spend that money at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China. If we spend it on gasoline it will go to Arabia, if we purchase a computer it will go to India, if we purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala, if we purchase a good car it will go to Japan, if we purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan and none of it will help the American economy.

The only way to keep that money here at home is to buy prostitutes and beer, since these are the only products still produced in the US.

Thank you for your help.

lol...

go with the prostitutes, no tax! Seriously though, the game is to give you that money so you can buy $525.00 worth of goods on an inflated currency and give the rest back as taxes. To invest it or pay off debt with it are the smart options. What if everyone who got the money back bought $600 worth of gold or silver? (BTW, there is currently a silver shortage in the US)

There's just a plethora of great information in the video too! So much that i can't recall anything else from the video except that if you want the economic stimulus package be sure to give them your money and they'll give it back, stimulating your itchy fingers and hot pockets.

Where does this money come from anyway?

Oh, no worries, fiat money always pulls through any way! Right?

Wake up America!

It comes from thin air. Just like is has since the US went bankrupt in the 1930's.

Our money no longer says redeemable in gold or silver and so is worthless.

The Federal Reserve Bank is a privately owned company that is no more tied to the Federal Government than Federal Express is.

If you don't believe that then who do you think we owe the 9+ trillion dollars to with interest???
