Like many Americans, we're awaiting the arrival of our stimulus check... . All $4.36 of it!
Seems the Treasury Department feels that it's in our best interest that they take the rest of what we've been paying monthly for our 2006 taxes, instead of letting us actually use the stimulus check for something important, say... paying down our debt?
Who am I kidding, this Administration doesn't know squat about paying down debt... .
It turns out that quite a few states are also taking part in this offset program. And it turns out that a lot of people are pretty pissed about it, too.
The real test will be next month, when the IRS is not supposed to withdraw any money from my bank account to continue our repayment schedule, which was working just fine for us, BTW.
