How Much Will I Get and When Will I Get It?

About the 2008 Federal Economic Stimulus Package

Later this spring most Vermonters will begin receiving a Federal Economic Stimulus check, compliments of the US Government.

The idea behind this piece of the overall 2008 Economic Stimulus Plan is that the Government gives us money and we, as voracious consumers, go out immediately and spend the money to buy something like a new computer, television set, or maybe even a car. Like a series of dominoes, our national shopping spree increases sales for businesses who now need to make more stuff so they hire more employees and buy more stuff from other businesses and before you know it our economy is just ticking away again.
