What a joke.

There will no doubt be a provision to deny it to people who make more than the poverty level wage.

What a joke.

poverty level wages? At least a lot of them have to drive to get to their work, so they are paying more for gas. The real dig is that they will want to give the checks to commuters in big cities where mass transit funded in large part by the rest of the "flyover" states makes driving a car rare.

Of course, why in the world should those mean, old, nasty, greedy, rich people get a 'rebate'? Aren't they the same ones that own those mean, old, nasty, greedy oil companies?(s/off)

An unbelievablely stupid idea like this could ONLY come from a mindless, pandering, shameless group like congress.

No doubt. And it will also wind up going to those who don't own cars.

It almost seems like Congress is trying to be stupid and clueless, doesn't it?
