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.
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.

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 do the geniuses at AIG or in Washington DC .

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

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

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

This is a little long, sorry, but I thought it was kinda funny how an "Average Joe" can make so much sense.

The Birk Economic Recovery Plan

Hi Pals,

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

Please Read & Respond With Thoughts (AIG BAILOUT)
I wish we could put this idea to a vote… I think it would get strong bipartisan support…

Hi Everyone,

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+.
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 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 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.

We deserve it and AIG doesn’t.

Hi Folks,

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

To make the math simple, let’s assume there are

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.

Now here’s a bail out plan that works!

I’m against the ,000,000,000 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+.

Our population is about 301,000,000 ± counting every man, woman and child. So 200,000,000 might b e a fair stab at adults 18 and up.

Of course, it would NOT be tax free.

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?

Put away money for college – it’ll be there

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???

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 US Citizen 18 + including the folks
who lost their jobs at Lehmann 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 US 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 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.
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 Billion!!
