How to spend your stimulus check!

CCRKBA SAYS STIMULUS CHECKS SHOULD BE SPENT ON NEW GUNS, AMMO
BELLEVUE, WA - Americans should "let the government buy your next gun" by
spending part, or all of their economic stimulus checks on a new firearm,
ammunition or shooting accessory, the Citizens Committee for the Right to
Keep and Bear Arms said today.
Economic stimulus checks will be going out in the mail this spring as an
incentive for American citizens to go shopping to help boost the nation's
sagging economy. CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb thinks it would be a boon to
America's firearms industry for that money to be spent on pursuits
guaranteed by the Second Amendment, while also providing jobs and paychecks,
and creating new jobs for people in the industry.
"This is our money, anyway," Gottlieb said of the stimulus checks. "If we
weren't paying it in taxes to begin with, it would still be in our bank
accounts and wallets, and we would already be spending that cash on a new
rifle or shotgun, perhaps a new handgun and ammunition, shooting accessories
and other equipment.
"Set some cash aside to buy gasoline for a trip to the range," he added,
"and don't forget that with every firearm and ammunition purchase, Americans
contribute to the Pittman-Robertson federal excise tax program that supports
state wildlife agency programs, including hunter education. Not only will
these purchases provide a much-needed boost to the gun industry, they allow
gun owners an opportunity to take more than just a symbolic swipe at
anti-gunners and anti-hunting groups."
Gottlieb also suggested that firearms retailers consider offering special
discounts to customers who use their stimulus checks in their stores.
"These checks should help pay for a lot of new guns and gear," he said. "We
think there are few better ways to celebrate our fundamental right to keep
and bear arms than to spend your money where it matters the most: At your
local gun shop or sporting goods store."

Hi Wayne,
Isn't that special?! CCRKBA's already got my money spent for me. I'm
so honored. Why, sounds like CCRKB is tryin' to tell me I'm too
stupid to be trusted with my own money.
Between them and the political parties and all the others I'm supposed
give away $1,200 out of $300.
All of these enterprises want to tell me what to do with my cash,
ostensibly "for my own good."
Myself, I'm pretty tired of being told I'm too dumb to figure out what
I should with my tax loan. Screw 'em all. I'm going to spend it all
on superballs and find a nice tall building.

The rebate check a couple of years ago was followed in the next
envelope containing my property tax bill. It paid maybe a quarter of
it.
That's where this rebate is headed.
Retired but with a business on the side, I also pay quarterly taxes.
If taxes were not deducted from pay checks and mortgage payments and
everybody had to pay as lump sums, we'd have less government messing
things up ;)
