Will you fellow hobbyists use your stimulus refunds on a provider?

Yup

Nope, Too many bills to pay.

Theoretically, if this money goes to a provider, there will be no tax paid, and if she pumps that $$ back into the economy by buying goods and services with it, it will provide further stimulation. Then again, when she spends it, a portion may go to pay taxes, but at least you would have gotten "full value" out of your $$. But it will help in either case.

On the other hand, as we have seen the economy tighten, there have been hints of this affecting the supply. Business slows down, rates drop, etc., so too much stimulus spending on the hobby will keep prices higher.
