Economic Stimulus

Problem: I'm in a ton of debt, and all indications are that I'm going to make even less money in the coming year.
Solution: Send a bunch of my income back to the people who owe it to me.

Now, I'm no economist, but how exactly does this help me?

Oh, right! It helps me get re-elected (I almost forgot what year it was)!

[not that I have any intention of returning my rebate check, mind you ;-)]
