The Fed wants a new stimulus package !
You have got to be kidding me !!!!
WASHINGTON (AFP) – The head of the Federal Reserve Ben Bernanke backed a stimulus plan for the flagging US economy on Monday as stock markets worldwide bounced back from recent lows.
Saying the US economy risked a "protracted slowdown," Bernanke said US lawmakers were right to consider a second stimulus plan this year as activity slows across the country.
His endorsement came after a forecast said the financial crisis could push worldwide unemployment to a record high and as new bank rescue efforts were unveiled in France and Sweden.
"With the economy likely to be weak for several quarters and with some risk of a protracted slowdown, consideration of a fiscal package by the Congress at this juncture seems appropriate," Bernanke told a House of Representatives budget committee.
He was asked to say if the US economy was in recession, but replied only that the there was a "very serious slowdown in the economy which has very serious consequences for the public."

Take it, take every last red cent
Buy gold.
Same here. Me and my dad are
Same here. Me and my dad are going to receive every cent we can from the government and we'll use it against them. Instead of wasting any money we receive, we're planning on using it for basic needs to face the situation.
I used the last stupid stimulus check to buy storage food
I'll do the same this time.
Whatever you do, don't buy stupid stuff at stupid stores, and contribute to the consumerism that they are hoping for.
If they are going to force you to take the stupid checks, buy something useful....food, gold, whatever...

I'm with ya.
Let em hang themselves, I can wait em out.

Can we refuse?
Clearly they want us to take the money and "stimulate" the economy (lol). But the money doesn't exactly come with return instructions. Does anyone know if there is a way to send the money back to them? Or to opt out of taking it in the first place?
I am not interested in keeping this dirty money, should it come. I gave the last stimulus package to charity...I just cant bring myself to keep some money that is utterly STUPID (ie. get money now, get taxed in a few generations) in concept.
If I understand correctly,
If I understand correctly, the government is going to force me to steal from my kids so that I can buy stuff so that it appears momentarily that the economy is doing well and the politicians are doing something to fix the problem.
I hope nobody is planning on rushing into debt for christmas
VOTE CHUCK BALDWIN
A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves.
go for it
why not....the bankers get 700 Billion.....might as well give it to the ppl. If they do another stimulous it will just go towards my debt snowball like the last one did.
Enough already.....
WOW more bailing out??? They must be kidding...
At any rate, drown them in PINK....a personalized pink slip courtesy of www.sendpinkslips.com
A fun and cheap way to let them know we ain't interested in Congressional bailouts!!
Ben want to save XMAS!
Ben is Santa Clause!
Welfare checks for all!
A cash advance on the national credit card? Sounds like a great idea.

Hahahahaha!
I don't know why but that just struck me as hilarious! :)
At this point what else is there but to laugh. This is a good thing though, turn the heat way up, burn out all the cobwebs and show everything for what it is.
Comedy as you know has its roots in tragedy.
Thank you
I like to make people laugh (especially when we all want to cry).

I'll bet
I'll bet we don't get this one in cash. It'll come in Visa gift cards to make sure the money is spent instead of being greedily hoarded, like the last stimulus check.
Why not just print $300 trillion dollars? They can then send a million dollars to every man, woman, and child in the country. Surely, if we're all millionares, our problems would be over...
What do you think about the war on drugs?
How about Operation Wall Street?

Bribe money, that's all it is
The general public is pissed off thinking that the only ones getting free money, is wallstreet. Well, here's the solution. Give the general public some free money too, so they quit bitching. This kills two birds with one stone. It shuts people up who are against the bailout, and it makes it easier for them to keep destroying the currency. They want to destroy it so their plans can come to light, and they need the easiest way to do it. Make the people think that giving them all sorts of money, will solve the monetary crisis.
WORD
STR8 UP THAT'S ALL IT IS

—Tolstoy
"The body is but a vessel for the soul,
A puppet which bends to the soul's tyranny.
And lo, the body is not eternal,
For it must feed on the flesh of others,
Lest it return to the dust whence it came.
Therefore the soul deceives and despises."
Seriously, I could use about ....
I mean, if they want to bail out, let's really bail out...print all anyone needs, everyone pays their debts, then our country is up a creek for about $300 tril, but all we do is declare bankruptcy and we are all good!
$300 didn't do it the first time. Let's add some zero's Ben!!!!
Dr. Paul described these yahoo's as flailing around in a panic. That is such an apt description.
Hey,are we on
welfare now??Can I quit my job and get free cheese?
No, we can't quit
It is the government that is on welfare, if we quit where would they get their cheese?
Thank you Dr. Paul for making my act on what I already knew was right.
*May the only ones to touch your junk, be the ones you want to touch your junk.*
Why, they'd print it up of course!
And they'd convince us it's real cheese, even!

they should give us all 100k
we all know hyper inflation will be here sooner or later. if all the Daily Paulers get that money people who think it's hard to find gold and silver now won't know what hit em. i'm sure there will be a run on firearms as well. probably a few log cabins too boot
No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in - Bill Hicks
Better yet, they should give
Better yet, they should give us the $2300 they stole from all of us! My dad and I are still waiting for the 1st stimulus. But we've been through very tough times where we've been poor. We don't like money from the gov't but we'll take it if we can use it against them.
