got this in my email.....SOME MATH...lol

Hi Everyone,

I'm against the $85,000,000,000 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.

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 in their pocket.

A husband and wife has $595,000.

What would you do with $297,500 to $595,000 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-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 Family 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,

A Creative Guy & Citizen of the Republic.

instead of 85,000,000,000 it was 800,000,000,000

which would make a substantial more

Only $425 Per Adult eom..

eom

Shhh stop touting your voodoo ecconomics!

If we believe it's 425,000 a head, then gosh durn it, it is!
Hyah! Populism AWAY!

$425

plus the federal reserve intrest and the math they use is $10k per family in the hole

Looks like

the sender benefited from a good 'publik educashun' ROTFLMAO..

85 billion / 200 million

is $425 dollars per person... Just saying...

Even if it is $425, I still

Even if it is $425, I still dont want to pay it to bail out the execs at AIG

.

I had to check it a few times

because I didn't think someone could be off by that much.

But you never know, if we add a bunch of zeros to the end of all our bills, maybe we really WILL be richer???

I got that too.

I'm sure that'll be the last time that guy puts his $.02 out there. Or in his case, $20. ;)

it´s still 425$ not 425 000

thanks for checking the math

i ALMOST sent that out to my friends :)

so much for that econ degree...

Well, the math would be quite different

with the $700 B bailout - which we know, is actually Trillions when it comes down to it...
