here is my bailout:

the government has spent around 4 trillion dollars on bailouts
(400000000000000)....for nothing. According to the U.S. Bureau of the Census, there are 306,086,779 americans right now paying taxes. if the gov. were to give every adult in america a equal share of that 4 trillion dollars..we would all get app. 1,306,818.93.....with all that money around, we would all bail ourselves out..including the banks.

That's EXACTLY what Rush said two weeks ago: give the freeking "bailout money" BACK to the taxpayers............................... the economy would BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shocked

I can guarantee you that with my share, I would pay off the house, buy two new vehicles, buy some land, buy some stocks, buy a new boat, etc! Wink

You're right rod breaker................................ there are 2 too many zeros in the original figure! Oh well, it was a nice if brief distraction. Rolling Eyes

But hey, I could STILL use the $13,068.19 BETTER than the morons who are getting the money and either sitting on it, giving out bonuses or throwing big bashes! Cool

Thanks for NOT getting defensive................................... as happens now and then. It's refreshing to say the least! Wink

We ALL make a mistake from time to time.

The simple fact is that for BIG numbers with lots of zeros, they are always in 3's!

If you want to get technical, the census number (306,086,779) is not just tax paying adults. It includes children and non taxpayers. That figure is the total population of the U.S.
