So Trump is going to give me a $1000?

[mikewv]

How about I donate that to defeating him in November? Wouldn't that piss him off.

1. Not really "giving" it, you KNOW it will be taxed next April 15, should we live that long

[mikewv]

2. Agree but it still feels good. :)

[Thomas Hurt]

3. Is it really giving when they send 1K of tax money back to you and tax it again?

4. Buying your good wishes and vote for $1000, is it worth it?

They are distracting from the billions they are giving to corporations who won't pay their workers a living wage or benefits.

5. Don't look a gift horse, etc. MANY people will benefit greatly from that cash, and lots of those

don't make enough $$ to even have to pay taxes, and that$1,000 means to eat or not.

6. yes they will but the $1000 is a REPUBLICAN concept, Dems say it should be $6000! Fucka lousy grand.

FIGHT FOR $6000!

10. I'm sorry to hear about your disappointment. Would you please send your check to me?

Thank you.

13. I am the official "designated processor" for those refused checks.

After subtracting a truly nominal handling. processing, and remailing charge, I will quickly send the remainder to you. At this point, I estimate your portion to be $15.43.

14. Ha. Hell no. I'm just diappointed seeing so many people on DU saying 1000 is great when real life

actual Democrats are advocating so much more, I think a bigger check is worth fighting for for EVERYONE.

16. Very few Dems have said it should be $6,000

Certainly none of the major ones like Pelosi or Schumer.

7. I question the value of spending so much money sending folks a check like this....

the payroll tax holiday, I think, is more meaningful.

But honestly, if I get one, I'm certainly not giving it to a damn politician, even one I want to win. It would be much more useful to someone in need.

I suspect the cutoff will be fairly low so a lot of us wont get any or much, which I guess is OK. If I do get some, it'll go toward some spring expenses around the house. That will help the small businesses that I need to hire for spreading much, working on my gutters, and the landscaping company.

9. I'm considering sending it directly to Amy McGrath n/t

[Chainfire]

11. I won't be spending that check

before it is in my hands.

[Chainfire]

12. What do you think will happen

to the banks when every person in the country gets a check for a grand. Especially for those who don't have accounts. Talk about a run on the banks.

15. Ghetto check cashing joints will make a fortune.
