I am just hearing some audio from Capital Hill and wow am I proud! Sounds like one or two Americans are sick of business as usual on that hill; and it's music to my ears and wish I could have been there. Depending on the news source a fellow chooses, he may or may not hear that this is about a lot more than healthcare.
After all...it's not called Socialist Hill!!! |

And then at the end of the year you will pay a tax on that tax credit. Same goes for the $4500 cash for clunker gift.

i love the clunker gimmick, trade in a car that is paid off, they inflate the price, you pay taxes on the 4500.00, then you pay a sales tax if it applies, then your stuck for another 60 months.
God bless, i wish everyone would go out and buy a new car for different reasons, but i look at a car as a tool...it gets me from A to B, and once in a while i throw some gas in, no payments |

I thought cash for clunkers was a great deal, especially last winter when GM and Ford were really discounting their trucks. I had a perfect candidate, 96 Suburban with 200k on it. $4,500 is about 3 times what it is worth. If only I wanted a payment book...
$6,500 for repeat homeowners ought to bring out a lot of new buyers around here. $8,000 for first timers has definately boosted sales in Maine. I wish they come up with a program for the people who are just hunkering down and trying to pay off debt and not borrow more. |

The child tax credit is great! Unfortunately you lose it in the year that they turn 17, which can be 4-5 years before they are on their own.
The stimulus programs require either having money or borrowing money. I think most people are borrowing. Hopefully, it won't be de ja vu all over again. |
