The federal government's economic stimulus checks were supposed to give the economy a much-needed shot in the arm, but instead they are giving many a boost in the fuel tank.

http://www.revolutionprofits.com/ Bush Tax Rebate Stimulus Package won't amount to JACK unless we INVEST it into growing OURSELVES and an ASSET that will create MORE INCOME for us... When you bank it, it won't be worth as much next year because of inflation. If you pay off debt and credit cards, you're just throwing it in the toilet. If you use it to create an ASSET that will pay you heavy dividends... when you use your $600 or $1200 to invest in yourself and your own business, you can create an income stream of more than DOUBLE that per month in as little as 1-2 months...

While the President signs into law a $152 billion stimulus package to jumpstart the economy, millions of Americans continue to rack up consumer debt, watch their home values slide, and worry about their futures with little to no savings. In fact, even with stimulus checks on the way to promote consumption, Americans are focusing on the need to rein in their debt and save more. A recent Harris Interactive poll found that when it comes to using the tax rebate, 47 percent say they intend to pay down debt, while another 32 percent report they will save it. Although very few doubt the need for an economic kick start, more attention is needed to address the lack of savings and debt crisis of today, facilitate savings for the future, and promote economic health and financial stability over the course of a lifetime. New research, policies, and business strategies are emerging that enable Americans to meet a range of savings needs, from short-term, precautionary savings as an alternative to consumer debt; to adequate savings for mid-life asset purchases; to longer-term default strategies to enable Americans to reach their retirement goals. less

BusinessMoney Minute: Stimulus Checks, Delta, PizzaMoney Minute: Stimulus Checks, Delta, PizzaThe Associated PressThe first round of economic stimulus checks gave a boost to personal incomes in April but a huge question remains: Will people spend the checks quickly enough to keep the economy afloat? (May 30)AP Money MinuteThe first round of economic stimulus checks gave a boost to personal incomes in April but a huge question remains: Will people spend the checks quickly enough to keep the economy afloat?The Commerce Department reported that consumer spending barely budged in April, rising a tiny two-tenths of a percent, and income growth was just as weak, increasing a similar percent. The growth in incomes, held back by four straight months of jobs losses, would have been just 0.1 percent had it not been for the first wave of stimulus payments.------------Delta Air Lines is cutting at least 1,000 more jobs than it previously planned because the number of employees who accepted voluntary severance offers exceeded the company's goal. In March, Delta offered voluntary severance payouts to roughly 30,000 employees - more than half its work force - and cut U.S. capacity by an extra 5 percent. Delta said roughly 10 percent of the targeted employees took the offer.--------------------------------------It was 50 years when Dan and Frank Carney borrowed $600 and opened a small pizzeria in Kansas. Today that humble enterprise with a humble name - Pizza Hut - is now the world's largest pizza chain with $10 billion in annual sales and more than 11,000 stores worldwide. The chain is now updating its look - and its menu - a move analysts say is right for the company in the face of a struggling economy.I'm Mark Hamrick with AP Money Minute.(****END****) less
