Just got this "joke" about how to spend the stimulus check:
Helpful advice on how to best help the US economy by spending your stimulus check wisely:
If we spend that money at Wal-Mart, all 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 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.
You can keep the money in America by spending it at the only businesses still in the US:
--Yard sales.
--Tattoo parlors.
--Domestic beer.
So be a real patriot; buy a flag at a yard sale, get drunk and get a tattoo.
