Im 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 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 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 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-Co ast 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.

I received this email this morning. Do not know who the person who wrote it, but he’s got a great idea if it could only be followed thru. Does anyone know the presidents email address?

McCain, Obama scramble to shift economic message
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – With economic anxiety rising, Republican John McCain and Democrat Barack Obama scrambled Wednesday to adjust their messages to connect more directly with financially struggling voters.
Obama talks directly into the camera in a new, two-minute television ad on how he’ll fix an economy in which “paychecks are flat and home values are falling.” McCain and running mate Sarah Palin softened opposition to government bailouts, accepting the U.S. takeover of the nation’s largest insurer as unfortunate but necessary to protect ordinary Americans.
“The shot that has been called by the Feds — it’s understandable but very, very disappointing that taxpayers are called upon for another one,” Palin told reporters during a visit to delicatessen in Cleveland.
Both McCain and Obama advocated cracking down on freewheeling Wall Street practices and for tough new regulations on financial institutions.
Obama ridiculed McCain’s calls for more regulation as an eleventh-hour conversion for one who has long championed deregulation.
Too many in Washington and on Wall Street “weren’t minding the store. They sat on their hands until it was too late,” Obama told a rally in Elko, Nev. He challenged McCain’s vow to take on the “old boy’s network…He hasn’t taken them on for the last 26 years.”
The increased emphasis on the faltering economy came on a day when stocks resumed their downward plunge following Tuesday night’s government takeover of American International Group Inc. with an $85 billion two-year loan from the Federal Reserve in return for a majority stake in the company.
“The focus of any such action should be to protect the millions of Americans who hold insurance policies, retirement plans and other accounts with AIG,” McCain said in a statement. “We must not bail out the management and speculators who created this mess.”
The turnabout came a day after McCain strongly opposed additional government relief and praised the government’s decision not to rescue Lehman Brothers after it had intervened to help investment bank Bear Stearns and mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
His Democratic rival addressed the AIG takeover in Elko, saying the government acted “to prevent an even larger crisis.” Arguing that the U.S. housing market was “in a shambles,” Obama said it was important now for the Federal Reserve to ensure that families with AIG insurance are protected. “It must not bail out the shareholders or the management of AIG that were making big profits when times were good.”
Obama, in his own change of tactics, speaks directly to voters in a new commercial to air Wednesday on national cable and in some battleground states.
“In the past few weeks, Wall Street’s been rocked as banks closed and markets tumbled. But for many of you — the people I’ve met in town halls, backyards and diners across America — our troubled economy isn’t news,” Obama says in the ad, taped Tuesday in a living room-like setting.
“Paychecks are flat and home values are falling. It’s hard to pay for gas and groceries and if you put it on a credit card, they’ve probably raised your rates,” he adds.
Obama also laments rising health insurance costs. He details major elements of his economic plan, including its proposal for a $1,000 tax cut for working couples, steps to reduce reliance on imported oil, bringing a “responsible end” to the war in Iraq and ending an “anything goes culture on Wall Street.”
“Doing these things won’t be easy. But we’re Americans,” Obama says.
Obama also discussed the AIG takeover
McCain campaigned in Michigan, one of the states hardest hit by eight straight months of rising unemployment.
At the General Motors Orion assembly plant, he told workers: “We are going to fight the special interests and corruption in Washington. We are going to fight the greed and irresponsibility on Wall Street.”
While both presidential candidates have called for tougher regulation of financial institutions and cracking down on Wall Street abuses, neither has come up with a detailed plan, nor gone so far as to endorse a proposal for the kind of massive federal intervention that took place in the savings and loan crisis of the late 1980s and the early 1990s.
Then, the Resolution Trust Corp. was established by Congress to acquire the real estate, mortgages and other assets of thousands of failed S&Ls.
Some lawmakers suggest such a strategy may be needed to stabilize financial markets, rather than the ad hoc interventions the government has been doing.
A day after extending a helping hand to AIG, the White House on Monday called the U.S. economy a mixed picture that would ultimately weather the current turmoil. Press secretary Dana Perino said help for other endangered companies would be considered on a “case-by-case basis.”
Both candidates have been adjusting to keep pace with a fast-changing situation in which financial markets have been buffeted by one j

I got this email yesterday and thought it was a GREAT idea! What do you think?:
I’m against the $85,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG.

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 and up into $85 billion that equals $425,000.00.
My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18 and up 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 and up 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 and up 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 and up 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 $1,000.00 ( “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 US Citizen 18 and up!
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 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.
