Well that means that you're earning too much according to the govt. Above$75K (single) or $150K (married) and you start getting it reduced $50 per $1000. The theory is that the people who need it most will immediately use it and put it back into the economy. I'm doing just what the government didn't want to see happen - whenever I get to a bank it's just going into a savings account and it won't alter my spending (like you, ours got reduced quite a bit but it will fill the boat up a couple times).
