>> I'm against the $85,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG.
>>
>> Instead, I'm in favor of giving $85,000,000,000 to America in a 'We

>>
>> To make the math simple, let's assume there are 200,000,000 bonafide U.S.
>> Citizens 18+.
>>
>> Our population is about 301,000,000 +/- counting every man, woman and
>> child. So 200,000,000 might be a fair stab at adults 18 and up..
>>
>> So divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billon that equals $425,000.00.
>>
>> My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18+ as a 'We Deserve It
>> Dividend'.
>>
>> Of course, it would NOT be tax free.
>>
>> So let's assume a tax rate of 30%.
>>
>> Every individual 18+ has to pay $127,500.00 in taxes.
>>
>> That sends $25,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam.
>>
>> But it means that every adult 18+ has $297,500.00 in their pocket.
>>
>> A husband and wife have $595,000.00.
>>
>> What would you do with $297,500.00 to $595,000.00 in your family?
>>
>> Pay off your mortgage - housing crisis solved.
>> Repay college loans - what a great boost to new grads Put away money
>> for college - it'll be there Save in a bank - create money to loan to
>> entrepreneurs.
>> Buy a new car - create jobs
>> Invest in the market - capital drives growth Pay for your parent's
>> medical insurance - health care improves Enable Deadbeat Dads to come
>> clean - or else
>>
>> Remember this is for every adult U S Citizen 18+ including the folks
>> who lost their jobs at Lehman Brothers and every other company that is
>> cutting back, and of course, for those serving in our Armed Forces.
>>
>> If we're going to re-distribute wealth let's really do it...instead of
>> trickling out a puny $1000.00 ( "vote buy" ) economic incentive that
>> is being proposed by one of our candidates for President.
>>
>> If we're going to do an $85 billion bailout, let's bail out every
>> adult U S Citizen 18+!
>>
>> As for AIG - liquidate it.
>> Sell off its parts.
>>
>> Let American General go back to being American General. Sell off the
>> real estate.
>> Let the private sector bargain hunters cut it up and clean it up.
>>
>> Here's my rationale. We deserve it and AIG doesn't.
>>
>> Sure it's a crazy idea that can "never work."
>>
>> But can you imagine the Coast-To-Coast Block Party!
>>
>> How do you spell Economic Boom?
>>
>> I trust my fellow adult Americans to know how to use the $85 Billion
>> 'We Deserve It Dividend' more than I do the geniuses at AIG or in
>> Washington DC .
>>
>> And remember, The Family plan only really costs $59.5 Billion because
>> $25.5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam. Talk about
>> a stimulus package!
>>
>> Ahhh...I feel so much better getting that off my chest.

most people quit thier jobs since they dont have work... business fail...

Money is only valuable as it is rare, if everyone is rich, then your not rich, follow me?

I do think its kinda ironic how businesses who fail to plan get bailed out while the consumer gets to call 1800 numbers to consolidate debt...
