"Then you are either a nonresident alien, or your AGI was above $87,000 or you are lying"

"For those that paid taxes, this is not welfare, this is a net reduction in tax rates"

"Do you just give your entire check to the Government?"

Guess which.

Wrong again, greedy. I paid fed income taxes, lots of them. I got no reduction, you got a dole check.

Apparently not. I'm also passing out $600 checks to those whose only claim is they aren't productive enough.

Now that you've taken what others created just shut up if you can't say thank you.

Sucks to be you, I guess... You need a new CPA if you couldn’t get your tax rebate, since it only went to those who made less than $87,000 AGI and paid more than $600 in Federal income tax.

Or you’re just upset that you’re in a higher tax bracket? Progressive tax rates suck, but with the $87,000 AGI cap all this is, is an adjustment to that progressive rate.

I paid far more in Federal taxes than $600; I got some of that back. Maybe you need to learn more about how to structure your income so you can benefit from the lowest possible tax rate. See Judge Learned Hand for some choice quotes about the duty of citizens to do just this.
