State of the Union Address

Is anyone watching this, Seriously at this point I am so done with Bush the only interesting thing to me that he has to say is "supposedly " he plans to assist in boosting the economy by giving taxpayers a tax rebate check. Tax Relief is what they're calling it, imagine that, sounds like a oxymoron to me (tax relief, are we ever really relieved of taxes). So here is how this thing is suppose to play out:

When are taxpayers suppose to receive: ( notice my choice of words, "suppose"):


IRS could start mailing out checks by the end of June since the agency is now in the middle of the 2007 tax-filing season.

How much:

Taxpayers could get rebates of up to $800 if single, or $1,600 if married.


Who would get it:

Everyone with earned income would get the full rebate, even if they didn't make enough money to owe income tax. Otherwise, roughly 40 percent of tax filers (which is more than 50 million households) would get only a partial rebate or no rebate at all.


So with all this said, can someone please shoot me a email should you receive one of these.
