    Lately I've been pretty liberal.. but to answer your question.. Why don't they move north and find fucking jobs like the rest of us!.. or B. stop relying on the government and rebuild their own city, I mean, there are enough people to do that. Why does everything have to be a hand out. Fuck the government, be self-supportive!

    I care for these people as much as anyone, be they should be given just enough to get back on their feet, and take it from there.. It's been long enough, that even if our government fucked up (not if, they did), they've (the people of New Orleans) had plenty of time to make up for the fuck-up of aid from our government.

    I might look like an ass, and I'm questioning my own statement, but come on.., Katrina was what, well over a year ago.. Time to start building from within.

    That said, my rebate will go towards my savings which will go towards my retirement, which I expect the government to fuck up social security anyways. The more taxes they give me back the better.

    Ole GW raised student loan interest rates to pay for Katrina. So, as a person who has student loans, I say that only people who are paying student loans should be receiving a rebate.

    that is easy to say. The answer is, they are raised poor. They need healthcare education and mentoring. People don't choose lazy and poor. our working society is a bit complicated for the poorly raise child - and worse for his children... a little effort at free education would go a very long way.

    too many educated functioning adults would pose competition to you.. be careful what you hope for.. all this is designed to keep things pretty much as they are... If you don't give a shit about those people than allow our government to keep them down, but keep them alive and thinking its their own fault.

    They should give back about 90% of what they steal from us. Then more of us could afford to help people like the Katrina victims.

    The government has shown over and over and over and over and over that it cannot manage money yet some people still put blind faith in it and continually call for everyone to give it more $$$

    Unfortunately, I'm probably not even eligible for the rebate.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    i take it you'll be donating your rebate check then. Such altruism! You may have just restored a little bit of my faith in humanity.

    as a matter of fact I am donating my reabate check to help support a former student of mine, the rest to the American Cancer society, so kiss my ass naysayers

    I already donated over 500 bucks to Katrina releif, tsunami relief, 9/11 firefighters fund, have donated to several non-profits including amercian heart assoc, disability outreach Org. a non prfo that buys wheelchairs for students, the breast cancer walkathon, the special olympics, and St.Baldricks to support a board members daughter fight for cancer(Pj-sin).

    http://www.stbaldricks.org and yes she met the goal set of 10,000 in total donations! Several by pit members

    I also donate artworks every year to an auction by our School district that raises money for needy students in our schools to go to college, buy clothes, and buy school supplies.


    so 1. I don't appreciate some peoples' fucking sarcasm and insinuations, and 2 Jlew you can now donate your rebate check to a worthy cause as your bet has just been lost.

    this isn't a thread about me, it is about the people in our country that have nothing or very little getting continually shit upon, but we (the more fortunate in most cases) still get tax rebates. Yeah I know some people need the rebate money, and its"stimulous" from purchases will help many buisnesses and create jobs by growth blah blah blah

    student loans can be deferred and your payments are income contingent....so if you don't make that pie in the sky income that you invested for, there is help.
