And people say I'm cynical

Got this from some friend via e-mail:

As you may have heard, the Bush Administration said every one of us would
now get a nice rebate.

If we spend the money at Wal-Mart, it will all go to China.
If we spend it on gasoline it will all go to the Arabs.
If we spend it on fruit and vegetables it will all go to Mexico, Honduras,
and Guatemala.
If we purchase a good car it will all go to Japan.
If we purchase electronic gadgets it will all go to Taiwan or Malayasia.

We need to keep that money at home to strengthen our economy here, so the
best way to spend it is for prostitutes and beer, the only truly functional
businesses still in the US.
