John McCain on the Bailout

Jon Stewart compares John McCain to Harry Potter's Gollum. They talk alike, they look alike, their cousins identical cousins....

An Alternate Bailout

This is a great idea being circulated via email.

I’m against the $700,000,000,000.00 bailout of our pathetic financial institutions

Instead, I’m in favor of giving $700,000,000,000 to America in

a We Deserve It Dividend.

To make the math simple, let’s assume there are 200,00 0,000

bonafide adults in the U.S.

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 $700 billon that equals $3,500,000.00 .

My plan is to give $3,500,000 to every person 18+ as a

We Deserve It Divided.

Of course, it would NOT be tax free.

So let’s assume a tax rate of 30%.

Every individual 18+ has to pay $1,050,000 in taxes.

That sends $210,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam.

But it means that every adult 18+ has $2,450,00.00 in their pocket.

A husband and wife has $4,900,000.00.

What would you do w ith $2,450,000 to $4,900,000 in your family?

Pay off your mortgage – housing crisis solved.

Buy that vacation home you have always dreamed of (or 2 or 3)

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 (or 2 or 3) – create jobs

Invest in the market – capital drives growth

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.

If we’re going to do an $700 billion bailout, let’s bail out every adult U S Citizen 18+!

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?

And remember, this plan only really costs $489.5 Billion because $210.5 Billion is returned

instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.

McCain Tries to Delay Debates

Yes my friends, it's true. The maverick John McCain has pulled another surprising move. After all of his talk about wanting to debate Barack Obama, he now wants to delay the first debate. He says that it's cause they should be focusing on our economic woes. Hmmmm, I don't think so Johnny!

Let's see, this week McCain has dropped 12 points in the polls compared to last week, giving Obama a 9 point lead. It seems that people don't feel that the maverick is in touch with our economy. It might have something to do with the statement that he made just over a week ago in regards to the fundamentals of our economy being strong. WOW, his buddy W. is sure trying to get a lot of money really really fast for a system that is fundamentally strong.

In addition people are starting to get past Palin's newness. The public is starting to realizae that he made a big boo boo in his choice. She reaks!

Don't work big John, the economic hardships will still be here for the next president to try to clean-up. The W. theft may be enough for our leaders to deal with for decades. This urgency of a problem that has been building for 8 years is just another atempt at fraud. Congress is weary this time. They've been foold to many times by your pal's administration. Debate Obama this Friday. Take off your mask for the public. Pretending that you are in touch with reality at this point is just a waste of time. There is only 6 weeks left till the election.
