The solution to the problem. 


There are 40 million Americans over 50 in the US , most of whom still work.  Why not give each of us old folks $1 million each with the following stipulations:

         1.        You must quit your job if you have one.  Therefore, 40 million new jobs would be created.  Unemployment solved!
         2.        You must buy a new US made car.  Therefore, 40 million new cars would be sold.  Auto industry problem solved!
         3.       You must buy a new house or pay off your mortgage.  Housing industry problem solved!
Not trillions!!  Not even hundreds of billions.  For $40 billion we could be out of this mess and on an upward trend again.  Much less money than has already been spent with virtually no results, and the effects of this “stimulus” package would be felt almost as soon as the checks went out.   
I also like the idea of hiring about five Mexican Generals for $10 Million per year each with the stipulation that for every illegal alien who crosses into the United States from Mexico , ten grand would be deducted from each of their salaries.   
Sounds like a plan.  police uglystupid2 coolsmiley tickedoff 2funny crazy2

Don't laugh, it would probably work better then O'bam bam's idea.......

40 million times 1 dollar is 40 million dollars.

40 million times 1 million equals 40 trillion.

Did you ever stop and think about this little tidbit?

Obama signed the "Stimulus Package" at the same desk where Bill Clinton got his package stimulated.  cooldude

I never thought that we could ever end up worse off then when Bill was in office but now we have someone who thinks that we have 57 states, can't talk without a Teleprompter and dismantles Wall Street in less than 100 days! A qualification to be part of his Administration is to make sure that you owe back taxes! Speaking of the Admin, Bill's wife now loves to tick off World Leaders wherever she goes by insulting them with improper gifts and asking really stupid questions. I'll take the desk for $10,000 please.. crazy2  tickedoff

That's a great idea about the passengers, but two questions:  1. Valk only has room for one at a time so the other one is going to feel neglected.  How do I solve that problem?  2. Is it going to be worth it 6 months from now when the money is gone?  Not saying those two young thiings are going to be expensive, but........
