Trickle-Down Economics, And How They Can Work For You

I don't know whether the President's plan to cut every taxpaying American a check in the next few months is a good one or not, but given that it looks like it's going to happen, and given that it's supposed to be used to invigorate the economy and not go to paying down offshore betting debts or keeping Louie The Fish from putting horse heads in my bed or the like, our friend neuracnu has what I think is an excellent idea:

If the Congress, Senate and President of the United States enact this economic stimulus plan and I receive a rebate, I hereby pledge to use my rebate, in its entirety, to find a single independently-owned distillery within the United States from whom I will purchase as much locally-distilled whiskey (of satisfactory merit) as possible and distribute the bulk of these spoils to friends and colleagues.

I would like to formally throw my support, and that of my constituents, behind this initiative, one hundred percent.

An excellent idea indeed. I'd nominate either LeNell's own Red Hook Rye or a selection from Tuthilltown Spirits, the only distillery in New York State.
