Works for ME!
Problem solved!
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 Deserve It
Dividend.
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 $425,0 00 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 has $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 le t'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 do the geniuses at AIG or in Washingt
on DC.
And remember, The Family plan only really costs $59.5 Billion because
$25.5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.
Ahhh...I feel so much better getting that off my chest.

@RubyBogonia - I did not write it as mentioned at the bottom it was written by... oops it is not specific is it? - lol - sorry about that! Anyhow I am not that smart!!!
Genius! I would vote for you.
@CityWideGraphics - oh, give yourself more credit !
Hey that looks familiar
If you wanna get anyting else off your chest, might I humbly suggest...........oh never mind
Most politicians don't write their own material. I like it though. Cha ching!
@RdKingClassic03 - You are WAY to predictable and NO
@CityWideGraphics - Life demands consistency.........I love to accomodate life you know.
@RdKingClassic03 - Ahem... we've seen how accommodating you are on your site! LOL.
LMAO^ RdKing, the player strikes again!
ryc: thanks for your thoughts and kind words-Your site is protected from the kids right? 
PARENTING SUCKS! *deep breath* Ahhh, I feel so much better now 
thanks for letting me vent-Give me a call if you need anything or you want to get together sometime-Yeah...we're bad on that one-I know-one of these days girl...
This has been getting alot of talk around the office but not as much as if you had followed Rdking's suggestion!
Holy crap, I'm all for it!
I have copied it to ponder more thouroughly than I can here, but my initial response is that people cannot be expected to use the money wisely ion their own inititative, so any essential usage, such as paying off the mortagage etc, should be done by the state and that amount deducted from the amount assigned to the indidivudals concerned.
I know you didn't write it Christy,but I'd say: CHRISTY FOR PRESIDENT!
You have far better ideas than Palin (maybe even better than Mc Cain) and WAY beter looks than both. Suppose Mc Cain gets it, drops dead two weeks after inauguration and we have to let the planet be run by that experienced 5000 people city mayor ...
Christy for president!
Seriously now, how's life these days? Get on line and let me know, one of these days.
{HUGS}
@HouseSparrow - the point is to let the people decide how to spend the money but you are right in that a lot of people would just spend it stupidly. At least the goverment would have pretaxed it.
@greenray - Life is gooder - lol. Things are looking up across the board.
ummm..... hate to burst your bubble... but the math is wrong. it works out to $425 a person, not 425K.

A great deal of worthwhile data for me! 1 LINK link. Very effective piece of writing, thanks for your post. web 6 here. To my mind everybody have to glance at it. 7 LINK 7. It won't work in reality, that's exactly what I consider.
