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 $425,000 to eve ry 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 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 ou t 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. < BR>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 Birk 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.
Kindest personal regards,

PS: Feel free to pass this along to your pals as it's either good for a
laugh or a tear or a very sobering thought on how to best use $85 Billion!!
 
your math sucks horribly

"So divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billon that equals $425,000.00. "

That equal $425
 
P don't junk in junk out. Come on you are propagating the problem that we are having in the country. Think for yourself. I got that email, and was like WTF 425k times 200m equals a whole fawkload more than 85b.

Whoever sent that to you, send it back with a reply busting out the math. Some liberal ****** that doesnt understnad math or finance in the 1st place started that thing. :eek:
 
I didnt even read the thing to be honest, I just say were it said something about me getting some monies and I was sold.

:flipoff1:


Recession is ineviatable , I have no money and no stocks outside of 401K so personally as long as my company doesnt go under or struggle it has virtually no effect on this poor white guy outside of rising cost of living.

I drink cheap beer and cheesburgers. Im not to spun up or surprised over the whole thing, short term its going to supplement my personal finances around 7500 bucks simply because I bought a house this year... some tax relief for first time home purchases ( and yes i fit the bill since its been so long since I sold my first home ) that Muchado caught

That $7500 is awesome 8)

I'm using that $7500 toward my Total Money Makeover :drinkers: (anyone else read that book? I'm at ch3 rite now--just got it)
 
Get old, **** has a way of working it all out money wise. 6 years ago I could not afford to drink P's free 'stuns, but looked rich on paper. molaugh
 
aw_jeez_not_this_shit_again2.jpg




that thing is makin its way around the interweb fast.

LOL!!
 
just heard something on NPR about the guberment getting equity in the firms it bails out??/
WTF are we trying to be China?
 
I really dont see why the gov't thinks it needs to step in , I mean **** ( and this really goes against the company i work for... we just signed a big contract with AIG right before they dropped the bombshell :eek: ) if the big corp ass ****s that have been getting rich for ever off everyone's dime go under so what. Piss poor management on thier part. Not Uncle Sams problem in my opinion. Go the **** under and someone else will step in and take that presence ya know. This is America, there is someone always standing right there ready to take oppurtunity given and run with it.

Why isnt the goverment bailing out the family owned companies, why not the sole proprietorships ? LLC's or anyone else having money problems. Its bullshit IMO to continually cater to the wealthy and powerful when they belly ache about profit losses and all that ****. Im certain we can go back and find times when they were taking every cent and finding every loop hole possible to keep the gov't away from taxing them. So why bail them out ? **** em, do business or go under. Nuff said. Automotive industry looking for goverment funding, Airlines once again wanting money, I mean **** man, between all the foreign aide and BS domestic handouts. Its no wonder Uncle Sam aint flat ****in broke.
 
If the companies are too big to fail then they are too big to exist in my opinion. The gov't is too scared that if they don't step in the economy will stop. No one will lend money basically. The gov't has to step in to some degree. However, these companies need to be liquidated/split &sold and the criminals behind them put in jail. I'm just afraid the gov't will try and run them.
