Adult Internet Market Research Company press release: An independent market-research firm, AIMRCo (Adult Internet Market Research Company), has discovered that many websites focused on adult or erotic material have experienced an upswing in sales in the recent weeks since checks have appeared in millions of Americans' mailboxes across the country. According to Kirk Mishkin, Head Research Consultant for AIMRCo, "Many of the sites we surveyed have reported 20-30% growth in membership rates since mid-May when the checks were first sent out, and typically the summer is a slow period for this market." com, one of the sites reporting figures to AIMRCo, added, "In a June 15, 2008 survey to our members, thirty two percent of respondents referenced the recent stimulus package as part of their decision to either become a new member, or renew an existing membership."
From what Jeff Bezos implies, everyone who received a tax rebate check, rushed to their keyboards tobuy Kindles from Amazon. So, out of frustration they instead, um, er, ah, well, geeze, nevermind...
Most of the people I know also spent their stimulus on illegal drug purchases. When you think of it though, it's kind of hilarious that a lot of the stimulus checks went to purchase one of the only items available for Afghan farmers to export. In turn I'm pretty sure most of the illegal drug money is handed to local heads of certain terrorist organizations that we are fighting in our great war on terror. And if people didn't spend it on drugs, I know a lot of us bought gas with some of that money. In turn that just stimulates the pocket books of the rich oil companies and people in control of the Middle East.
