    its an advance on tax refund

    http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/02/08/ ... pstoryview

    I just checked and CNN removed this paragraph from the story

    At CNNpolitics.com a story about the new money give away … it is not a give away … it is an advance on your tax return next year… so next year they will take the money back and you will be short for that year…

    “The checks are an advance on next year's refunds, and most, if not all of the money, will be deducted from taxpayers' refunds in 12 months' time.â€

    The article located at the link you provided does not say that. Did you paste in the wrong link?

    OMG those snakes!!! I just did a Google search on part of your quote, justme, and found all sorts of references to the same article you linked to.

    Check this out:

    justme, I was not accusing you of anything with my earlier post. I just thought you had made a mistake. I've done it myself enough times.

    What's even more interesting is that it appears they did the same thing the last time there was a tax rebate. Here is an article a truthorfiction about it. Note the dates...

    So we are getting a line of credit against next years tax bill.

    Fine, lets save ours so we will have it for next years taxes!!!!!

    How typical of the lowlifes in WA and how naive of us!

    I read that CNN article before they took out that sentence, too, and I was STEAMED about it!!!

    What's the point in a "rebate," if it's deducted from next year's rebate? No thanks!

    And what about the poor people who are a family with kids, and they get somewhere around a $2,000 rebate? What if, due to this, they OWE taxes next year, rather than getting a refund? Wouldn't that put people into MORE DEBT, rather than saving the economy?

    I'm hoping this is a misprint, but it wouldn't surprise me if that little fact is kept secret from the public. They KNOW everyone would be TICKED OFF to know this!
