Gee it's comforting to know there are so many "Catters" who don't need the money they are going to get back. Just a reminder from Claymore's original post. You can sent it back.

Bob: Beg to disagree. The reason for the surplus was the government was taking more money from us than was needed during the Clinton years. And the great economy you so willingly credit to the Clinton folks is a result of the Reagan/Bush years not the spender's years. :>)

And SS ain't gonna belly up anytime soon. And the surplus is still far too large! The tax cut should have been larger.

As to folks who don't get a refund, Bob, they are those who did NOT PAY any income tax. Why in the world SHOULD they expect to get anything? The funds that people are receiving now are not a GIFT. It is a return of their own money!
