Funny if you think about

I read this today:

"By this time we had done our patriotic duty as Americans and spent our tax rebate on a new HD television"

And it struck me as funny. Economy bad? Let everyone go out and buy a new tv. You know? This is not the first, or the second, or the third reference I have seen to those stimulus checks and new TVs. I think I can count about 8 people I know first hand who used that money to buy a tv. Thing is? Where were all those TV's made? Aside from the people at Best Buy making minimum wage, who did this help???

You know whose economy was stimulated by that check? *Mine*. The government just padded my savings account. Thankyouverymuch.
