Not true. Those taxes are money that we rightfully earned. We should pay as little as possible. The only good news about taxes is when they are cut.

Stimulus, in contrast, is ice cream. It's welfare.

I also recall conservatives going on and on about how half of Americans do not pay Federal income taxes. Remember that? So...according to your logic, only half the people should have gotten a rebate. How is it a "rebate" when you never paid anything in the first place? Is it not welfare then?

Sounds like ice cream...or fudge. Free fudge from your friendly Republicans looking for votes, err...I mean stimulus.
