*My* Stimulus Package Idea: |
|
Since were already over-extended everywhere, and the Feds are printing worthless money anyways, why not make it a win/win for all?
Give every person in the Country who is 18 or older a check for $10,000. *that* will stimulate the economy, possibly create new jobs as people use it for capital to start their own businesses, reverse the real estate disaster as people use the money as down payments on purchasing homes, or for catching up their past due mortgages. Bank stock will go up. Lots of good would come from it..
It will also give a sense of HOPE to millions of poor people, as it may be their first chance ever to get ahead a little bit and feel like they can succeed.
What's your thoughts on this?
