Give the American people a dividend pay out, rather than give any more "bailouts" to Corporations. The People need it!

Created by S.G. on October 27, 2011

We the People are in favor of giving $85B, the same amount in bailouts to big Corporations, to the People in a “We Deserve the Dividend” payment. Let's say there are 200M verifiable US Citizens 18 or older. Divide $85B by 200M=$425,000.00. At a tax rate of 30% as unearned income, each person will pay $127K in taxes. That sends $25B immediately back to the US Treasury. That means that every adult 18+ has $297K in their pocket. What would you do with $297K? Pay off a mortgage? Do repairs/renovations? Repay student loans? Pay off credit card debit/medical bills? Buy a new/better car? Invest in the market or save? Pay for your elderly parent's health care? Start a business and create jobs? “Deadbeat” Dads/Moms would become current by paying arrears prior to pay their out! Crisis solved!
