Received this email from my brother the other day. It does make you think a bit:
----------
Your Tax Rebate:
The federal government is sending each and everyone 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 the Arabs.
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, weed, beer, and tattoos, since these are the only products still produced in the USA.
Thank you for your help & please support the US.

No wonder our economy is a mess.

HA! LOL.
Can we please, please copy that to our blog as well? Gawd, this is the first time I've ever asked to copy...face is getting red.
Thanks for the laugh. We've been complaining about this very issue over at our place.
Harry & Stacey, I'm all about spreading laughter & provoking thought -- so absolutely, copy to your blog. (bonus points for attribution, i.e. where you got it.)
