I think people spending these refunds may be good for the economy, but is bad for the individual people. There are too many people in this country that have way too much debt, yet they continue to spend their money anyway instead of trying to pay off what they owe and budget properly.

I guess a lot of people use our govt. as their example for that though, which does the same thing with the deficit that we continue to have.




Guilty as charged, but an excellent point. Paying off the national debt and making that a publicly known priority sets an excellent example for the people.

Why should we pay off our debt? The government doesn't? (not saying that proper thinking...just making a point)
