How To Spend Your Tax
Rebate & Really Help The Economy
Grassroots organization U.S.A. Stimulus is encouraging people who will be receiving their tax rebate stimulus checks (beginning in May) to spend that money in their local communities with people who will do the same.
In this way the money does more good for Vermilion as opposed to simply running to a big box store and plunking it down on a lot of stuff that just sends the money off shore without doing much else for our economy.
The idea is that we can keep spending our monthly budgets the same way we normally do, and to make special purchases in our neighborhoods using the tax rebate. That will give them a boost. Vermilion businesses can then make an effort to spend the money locally.
U.S.A. Stimulus knows that some people will have to use their checks to cover their basic monthly expenses and they ask them to feel good about doing so. Even those people may be able to buy some of their food and gasoline closer to home because that will still help.
Please join U.S.A. Stimulus in the project by spending your own rebate checks in Vermilion. Ask the people you shop with to do the same.
When you spend your rebate dollars at Vermilion businesses, ask them to spend as much of it as they can locally also. This will multiply the effect of your purchases.
With your help, U.S.A. Stimulus believes it is possible to multiply the impact of the tax stimulus rebate by at least three times before the money has to leave the local economy.
