Yesterday Husband and I received a notice from the Internal Revenue Service that we may be receiving a tax rebate check from the government. The letter was very vague, and it didn't say much more than what we have been hearing on the news for the past several weeks. Husband and I just shook our heads and wondered how much money our government has just wasted sending out letters to everyone who may get a check.
According to a Newsweek article, the cost to send a letter out to approximately 130 million households is 41.8 million dollars.
Nearly $42 million to tell us something that anyone who has been even remotely near a television or radio for the past month has already heard about.
There are so many things I could say right now, but I think just shaking my head will suffice.
