It's an Advance

Charlie Young - "It's not a rebate, it's an advance."

You're tax 'rebate' in April or May, which ranges from some random amount of money to some other random amount of money. The amount of money you get depends on how much you make, how many children you have, and I think the phase of the moon when you filed your taxes. It isn't a rebate, it is an advance on your taxes in 2009.

It didn't work in 2001/2002 and I'm fairly certain it isn't going to work this time. The economy isn't as bad as the doomsday proclamations say that it is, it however isn't peachy either. Home prices aren't supposed to go up 30% a year every year for 4 years. When things like that happen it eventually bursts and things go back to normal.
