Very stimulating

I just received a letter from the Internal Revenue Service telling me that they are sending me a stimulus check that I will receive by Friday.

I wonder how much that letter cost. There is an explanation of the benefits in the letter, which is nice. However, why not just mail the letter and the check together?

While the money will come in handy, I'll probably spend it on fuel, I'd have rather the government spend $150 billion on domestic energy production.
