Seriously My answer to all of this is Honda is leading the way to get us out of this mess. Yes honda. Honda is creating a home energy system based upon a self powering hydrogen battery system that hooks up your cars and your home from water. Seriously if the government gave one iota about it's citizens they'd actively be trying to make this technology perfected and available for every citizen at a reasonable rate so that we could actually fix this global energy crisis that caused the food shortage in the first place.

How about they reimburse us for the cost of the Iraq War instead. According to NPP that comes to almost 5 grand per household.

The Republican $600 (Tax Relief Plan)
$600 @ $45- a week for gas for your car = 3 months of gas for your car.
All your tax relief money that will go into the pockets of Saudi Arabia and Russia. All patriotic and thankful all Americans should be.
Thank you George W. Bush, Jr.

Well that seems a bit on the best case scenario end. But it does have potential to do a lot of good.

paulson claims that your $600 checks will create 500,000-600,000 jobs, all in the check-cashing industry i suppose.

Even if people spend it on things they don't need it will help.
The worst thing people can do with that money is buy more debt.Paying off debt directly will help as well.
$600 may not be alot individually but $600 for everyone will (correction: could) make a big difference on the economy.
Best thing to do is take that money and pay off debt, if you don't have debt buy a product made buy a company who's trying to do something good. Buy local, buy from companies who are charitable.

Today:
"The federal government and JPMorgan Chase & Co. teamed up on a bailout of Bear Stearns Cos. on Friday, a last-ditch move to save the investment bank, which acknowledged its dire financial straits after a week of firm denials. Bear Stearns lost half of its value within 30 minutes of the market open."

Yesterday:
"Bear Stearns Cos (BSC.N: Quote, Profile, Research) Chief Executive Alan Schwartz on Wednesday dismissed recurring speculation that the investment bank faces a cash crunch, saying it has hefty cash reserves that have remained little changed this year."
