I’m against the ,000,000, 000.00 bailout of AIG.

Instead, I’m in favor of giving ,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+. (200 million)

Our population is a bout 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 billon that equals
5,000.00 per each adult.

My plan is to give 5,000 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 7,500.00 in taxes.

That sends ,500,000, 000 right back to Uncle Sam.

But it means that every adult 18+ has 7,500.00 in their pocket.

A husband and wife has 5,000 .00.

What would you do with 7,500.00 to 5,000.00 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 – ends the welfare crisis

Remember this is for every adult U S Citizen 18+ including the folks
who lost t heir 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 00.00 ( "vote buy" ) economic incentive that is being proposed by one of our candidates for President.

If we’re going to do an 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.

Su re 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 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 .5 Billion because .5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.

Ahhh…I feel so much better getting that off my chest.

OK people, remember that I didn’t create this I just received it in an e-mail. I think we should take care of the millions of people losing their homes and businesses instead of of helping a few greedy corperations.

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 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 .5 Billion because
.5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam

Ahhh…I feel so much better getting that off my chest.

OK…..here’s a plan I could live with.

I’m against the ,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG and the like…

Instead, I’m in favor of giving ,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 billon that equals 5,000.00.
My plan is to give 5,000 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 7,500.00 in taxes.
That sends ,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam.
But it means that every adult 18+ has 7,500.00 in their pocket.
A husband and wife team has 5,000.00.
What would you do with 7,500.00 to 5,000.00 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 00.00 (‘vote buy’) economic incentive that is being
proposed by one of our candidates for President.

Whoops, sorry replace B with 5B, the proposed bailout.

and give congress time to do surgery on the whole system?

This idea sounds just crazy enough to possibly work, so naturally it won’t be given serious consideration. How great is our bureaucracy!!

I just read the entire text of President Bush’s address last night and I grade his effort "D" at best. He did not make the case that needs making.

Here’s the real skinny and what I think President Bush should have said and one —

My Fellow Americans:

The annual yield on treasury bills fell yesterday to 44 basis points. at times yesterday, it was negative. This shows that companies and people with more money than FDIC insurance covers aren’t willing to deposit it at the banks, nor are they willing to buy commercial paper with it.

Without funds from deposits or commercial paper, the banks don’t have the money to make ordinary loans to their regular customers, even if the regular customer’s credit is good. I’m thinking of the local grocery store that borrows on Friday to pay their employees and repays the bank each Monday from the weekend’s receipts.

Without funds available to the banks, they can’t make even good loans to regular customers.

Many people think the bank’s executives and managers should be fired for making all these bad mortgage loans and thus they want to deny this bailout program until the banks are being run better.

America does not have the time to wait for that to happen.

Booting the bank managers would require us to let the banks fail first. It is illegal to simply take over the banks unless and until they stop functioning.

If the banks stop functioning, America’s payments mechanism would stop.

That means that your credit cards, your debit card, and your atm card would not work. No one would take your check because they couldn’t know if your bank will be able to pay it tomorrow.

If that happened, you would not be able to buy groceries or gas or anything unless you had actual cash. This would cause the total volume of sales to plunge, perhaps to only 1/3rd or less of regular levels.

And then employees would be laid off, and every business that couldn’t withstand a huge decline in sales would go bankrupt.

If you and your extended family has four workers in all, I’m talking about one of them losing his job and a second being told her wages are now 1/3rd less than what they were, or she loses her job too.

This is what we must prevent — America’s payments mechanism must continue to operate.

If this means that we have to accept that some executives and managers who deserve to lose their jobs get to keep them because they are also the payments mechanism, that is a price we simply have to pay.

Loans whose value is unknown must be reduced to less than the amount of capital each and every bank has on hand. Since the financial markets have already shown that they will not provide more capital to the banks, someone has to remove the questionable loans from the banks’ assets.

This is what the program my administration has proposed will do.

And the only entity with enough size to do that for the entire economy is the Federal government.

To make sure there is enough time for Congress to act, I have asked the Securities and Exchange Commission and Federal Reserve to immediately declare a banking holiday. They have agreed to do this.

All banks, stock markets, futures markets, stock brokerages, and similar enterprises all across America will be closed tomorrow. They’ll stay closed until Congress acts.

It is very likely that your credit cards will not work tomorrow. Your debit cards and atm cards probably will not work either. And stores may refuse to take your check.

Banks and markets will re-open when there is reasonable assurance for their depositors and ordinary creditors that these weak assets will not cause the banks to fail and take away their deposits and short term lendings.

Our prayers are with America tonight and every night,

thank you and good night.

***
Well, that’s what I think the President should have said and done –

what’s your opinion?
I started working in banking in 1970. along the way, I earned MBA and CPA. I’ve seen economic booms and busts related to real estate lending since my first bust in 1973.

This is by far the worst situation since then.

This idea sounds just crazy enough to possibly work, so naturally it won’t
be given serious consideration. How great is our bureaucracy!!

I’m against the ,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG.

Instead, I’m in favor of giving ,000,000,000 to America in a We Deserve
It Dividend.

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. 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 00.00 ( "vote buy" ) economic incentive that is being proposed by one of our candidates for President.
If we’re going to do an billion bailout, let’s bail out every adult U S Citizen 18+!
As for AIG – liquidate it.
Sell off its parts.
Let American General goback 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!! How do you spell Economic Boom?
I trust my fellow adult Americans to know how to use the Billion Dividend ! I do!
We Deserve It more than the geniuses at AIG or in Washington DC.
And remember, The Family plan only really costs
.5 Billion, because .5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.
OMG! I was so excited about the idea that I never even thought to do any math and see if it was accurate! Thanks, Y’all!

Hold on….here it is.

I’m against the ,000,000,000..00 bailout of AIG.

Instead, I’m in favor of giving ,000,000,000 to
America in a We Deserve It Dividend.

To make the math simple, let’s assume there are
200,000,000 bona fide 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 billion that
equals 5,000.00.

My plan is to give 5,000 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 7,500.00 in taxes.
That sends ,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam. But it
means that every adult 18+ has 7,500.00 in their pocket. A husband and wife has 5,000.00.

What would you do with 7,500.00 to 5,000.00 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 00.00 ( "vote buy" )
economic incentive that is being proposed by one of our candidates for President..

If we’re going to do an billion bailout, let’s bail out every adult U S Citizen 18+!

As for AIG – liquidate it. Sell off its parts. Let

Sure it’s a crazy idea that can "never work."

But can you imagine the Coast-To-Coast Block Party!

Eve ry individual 18+ has to pay 7,500.00 in taxes.

That sends ,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam.

But it means that every adult 18+ has 7,500.00 in their pocket.

A husband and wife has 5,000.00.

What would you do with 7,500.00 to 5,000.00 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

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 00.00 ( "vote buy" ) economic incentive that is being proposed by one of our candidates for President.

If we’re going to do an 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 a nd 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 Billion "We Deserve It Dividend" more than I do the geniuses at AIG or in Washington DC.

And remember, this plan only really costs .5 Billion because .5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.

Ahhh…I feel so much better getting that off my chest.

You don’t want to even hear what I think about the stupid mortgage companies that loaned out billions of dollars to people who they knew had no way of paying back the loans, with both sides of the equation interested in one thing…fast money.

But it didn’t work, and now we’re supposed to bail out those idiots too???

BTW – I do realize this is a joke…
Like I said… I merely copied and pasted this without checking the math…
