    When I can't use my stimulus check to pay off my doctor bills because I have to spend over 800 for my stupid Ford to pass inspection.... wait...that really has nothing to do with the economy....
    Okay ummmm

    When a loaf of shitty italian bread at kmart cost 4 dolla.

    When I can't afford to drive around to pick up my friends without cars.

    When the cats that used to live in cat town (a place near me where cats are spayed or neutured, left in boxes and fed every day and given medical care....) stop being fed because they don't have the money and go away....

    When the company that gave me my student loans goes bankrupt and doesn't exist anymore....

    Damn. Well, I believe it.

    We have been able to pay those bills but seriously... I have a stack beside me... of 15 doctor and hospital bills from being in the hospital, the neurologist, the mri, eye doctor, blah blah.... 15 doctor bills.... wanted to pay a good chunk with that but the stimulus check will go right to my stupid car...

    Know what is ridiculous? This one hospital bill... they sent it and two months later when we didn't pay anything yet, they put it to collections... I had no idea hospitals put things to collections so fast... ridiculous...
