Thought this was worth passing on....

FINALLY, AN IDEA THAT MAKES SENSE.

I LOVE THIS PROPOSAL !!

I’m against the $85,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG.
Instead, I’m in favor of giving $85,000,000,000 to America in
a We Deserve It Dividend.
To make the math simple, let’s assume there are 200,000,000
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 $85 billon that equals $425,000.00.
My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18+ as a
We Deserve It Dividend.
Of course, it would NOT be tax free.
So let’s assume a tax rate of 30%.
Every individual 18+ has to pay $127,500.00 in taxes.
That sends $25,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam.
But it means that every adult 18+ has $297,500.00 in their pocket.
A husband and wife has $595,000.00.

What would you do with $297,500.00 to $595,000.00 in your family?
Pay off your mortgage – housing crisis solved.
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 – create jobs
Invest in the market – capital drives growth
Pay for your parent’s medical insurance – health care improves
Enable Deadbeat Dads to come clean – or else
Remember this is for every adult U S Citizen 18+ including the folks
who lost their jobs at Lehman Brothers and every other company
that is cutting back. And of course, for those serving in our Armed Forces.
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 $85 billion bailout, let’s bail out every adult U S Citizen 18+!
As for AIG – liquidate it.
Sell off its parts.
Let American General go back to being American General.
Sell off the real estate.
Let the private sector bargain hunters cut it up and clean it up.
Here’s my rationale. We deserve it and AIG doesn’t.
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?
I trust my fellow adult Americans to know how to use the $85 Billion

We Deserve It Dividend more than I do the geniuses at AIG or in Washington DC.
And remember, The Birk plan only really costs $59.5 Billion because $25.5 Billion is returned
instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.
Ahhh...I feel so much better getting that off my chest.

Now What?

Ok, so i got a little carried away, i thought since i have this one, i would start one for business. They keep telling us that this is the "wave of the future" where more and more buyers and sellers are turning to new tech to find what they want, and that includes real estate.

I started my own real estate blog, so now i have two. I have a little more going on in that one with links and stuff to ski Utah and the SL Trib etc. I also have linked to my web page so you can search for homes. I asked they guy that helped me set up that one how i get people going to my blog and he just said to keep posting and link up to other good blogs and it just goes from there.

He started his own blog around the first of the year and he says that he business right now comes almost exclusively from that. HuH? yeah, I'm 44 and he is probably 25/26ish. anyway, i am not sure what address to put down for you to search for the blog but it is on this domain and my email on that is realtor4utah@gmail.com so see if you can find it, i am still learning the ins & outs of this all.

Also, i love referrals!!!! i cannot actually solicit a referral and pay you for it, for some reason that is against the code of ethics for Realtors. So let me say this, I LOVE REFERRALS!!!!

Well, i just looked and the other blog is http://realtor4utah.blogspot.com/ tell me what you think.

Out for now, how is everyone doing?

keeping up with the siblings

So, now what? Lets see how long i can keep this up.... I saw Shawna's blog and was blown away and so now i figure i have got to have at least some time to do this.

I am not quite sure where to go from here, i guess it has to start somewhere, right?

So now it all begins, do i really have to make a profile and put on pic's and all that other crap or can i just type and read and type and read again....

We shall find out!!!!
