If You’re Wondering When You Get to Stimulate the Economy
“Dear Government and IRS: you guys are dicks.”
You can find the time table here. I have to say, I could really use $600 because it’s basically already spent before I get it. Either I pay down my hardcore credit card debt or I get to put a crown on my root canal. Whatever I do with the monies will be fun-tastic.
It’s great that the U.S.A. is borrowing money from other countries so it can give money we don’t have to poor people. How about just a permanent tax break for people who earn less than $40,000 a year? How about that? How about not taking 50% of our Christmas bonuses? Hmmm?
Dear Government and IRS: you guys are dicks.
Government types need to figure out how to spend our tax money better (more efficiently) and we, the people, have to stop living beyond our means. No more $100 Nikes for people barely making their rent. No more credit card companies issuing credit lines to dogs and toddlers. No more buying shitty gizmos to open your cans of Chef Boyardee or crazy diet pills that fuck you up or coffee tables with dolphins and waves holding up the tops or ground effects for your El Camino. No more suing someone because you drank shampoo and now all shampoo bottles everywhere bear labels asking you nicely to please not drink the contents. No more Nanny State. No more reality TV. No more pandering to the lowest common denominator.

Matilde UrrutiaIt isn’t simply that you are loved gloriously, or loved beautifully. But rather that a pitch perfect expression of love for you sounds and sounds, Rises into the very air. Though the love itself may fade, I do not know, The poetry you inspire ascends, ascending Becomes stars and you, who are so loved, Look [...]
