Yes, I have. 1 year in NJ, 4 years in NYC, and then I bounced among MD, OH and MI for 2 years.

Yes, I am. In addition to the above 8 years if living in the US, while living in Canada I worked full time in Buffalo, NY, 3 years in all, so that's why I wrote that The US was never a paradise but it also wasn't not such a bad country, and that I regret they had to fvck it all up.

It won't boost the economy! Its just appeasing the millions that hate bush for a short time period! Bush is hated by both right and left wings now. Throwing them a few buxx is gonna make them happy. Its really a bad financial idea though. The US is already in so much debt that they need as much tax $ as they can get to pay it off. We are screwed pretty much!
I find myself agreeing with you yet again. The fistful of dollars is like giving dope to addicts. Some will make a good use of the money but most Americans are in debt up to their eye balls. The responsible ones will delay their personal bankrupices and the banks will have a bit of an upswing in their stock value upon loan repayments by some.
The token cash will only give many an illusion all is well, while the economy is in fact crumbling.
