Want to know what it would be like if they bailed us out instead of wall street?
Here’s the plan:
*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 rig ht 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.*
=0 A
*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 Chud plan only really costs .5 Billion because
.5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.

i bet your right but as you should know these people don’t know their arses from their elbows and it suits them to think their doing a favour by clearing up a mess which they caused so they can say we did this we did that without saying WE CAUSED IT you wont hear that as always its us who end up paying for their mistakes as usual

Brilliant idea! Chud For President!
(unless 200,000 people spontaneously retire to mexico, I suppose)

easy, you’re brilliant. the relief that that would bring to sooooo many families would be astounding. i’m voting for you. you’ve done the work of hundreds of politicians all by yourself. that alone speaks volumes.

$425.00 won’t pay off my mortgage. (check your math)
there are other problems with this idea but if $1000 is puny and this is less…
