Lawmakers were instead discussing a $500 rebate for individuals, the aides said, with details for couples and people with children still being negotiated. The rebates would likely be limited to individuals with incomes of $85,000 or less and couples with incomes of $110,000 or less, the aides said, speaking on condition of anonymity because no final decisions had been made. http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5h19_YeGzwzlmJhx42iIA7nJF0_UAD8U8CNH80
5. we'll get it just before the (s)elections in Nov.
first the plan has to pass Congress, and since it doeesn't involve baseball and sterioids it will be awhile before they vote on it.
then there's the inevitable republic stonewalling because they want to give the money to their buddies at the top, and trickle down on the rest of us
next bush will threaten to veto it because of some stupid reason
this will be followed by the dems apologizing and bending over
so it will be June before it hits bush's desk
then the treasury has to write/print the blah-blah not a mistake you are really getting a check from us letter - which will have lots of mistakes/misinformation
this will take us through bush's august vacation
so sometime in october the checks will actually be printed and mailed
