According to Sen. Ensign’s Republican Policy Committee, for the cost of the Democrat’s spending bill Congress could provide every American taxpayer a rebate check for $9,460. If you gave the rebate to every tax filer (including those who do not actually pay income taxes — a key Obama constituency) Congress provide a check of $6,336. That would do more stimulate the economy than wasteful Washington spending that won’t take effect for years. Republicans can ask the American people, which would you prefer: a check for $9,460? Or would you rather Washington spend that money on honey-bee insurance and the “removal of small to medium-sized fish passage barriers”?
