Richard, why don't you and I buy some more gold coins with our tax rebate checks? Maybe we should buy American Eagles...the treasury needs our money... NEW T-BILLS WILL PAY TAX REBATE By JESSICA SOMMAR June 21, 2001 -- Buy T-Bills - if you want your tax rebate. The U.S. Treasury doesn't have enough pocket change to cover the tax rebates approved by Congress, but it is making plans to make sure the checks are in the mail. Analysts have estimated that an additional $67 billion worth of Treasury bills - of three, six or nine months duration - may be offered before Sept. 30, according to Bloomberg News. Treasury spokesperson Tony Fratto said that the amount of T-Bills for sale won't be released until the Aug. 1 quarterly refunding announcement. "We are prepared to make any short-term adjustments to meet changes and may be adjusting some of our bill allotments," Fretto added. Although the shortfalls are a regular seasonal occurrence, the sluggish economy has dried up revenues across the country - and that has meant less corporate tax revenue coming into U.S. coffers. Reportedly, corporate tax receipts due on June 15 have fallen 25 percent from last year's levels.
