As of July 2008, there are currently 303,824,640 people in the US population.
0-14 years: 20.1%,15-64 years: 67.1%, 65 years and over: 12.7%
Given this information- exclude ages 17 and under, the total number in the population would be lower. Lets deduct 20% for of the population thats 0-14 . Ex.303,824,640 (TOTAL POP.) minus 60,800,000(20% ages 0-14) That leaves 243,024,460 million. Lets estimate to 240,000,000. Keep in mind, this number would be far less if we take in account the people ages 17 and below vice 14 and below. Now, factor in families whose hosehold income is $150,000 and less. That is the target range. We can decrease our total pop numbers to at least 130,000,000 americans 18 and over, or even 21 and over, that makes 150,000 annually or less, and pays taxes. Of those 130,000,000, if the government gave each qualified person $10,000. Thats right only $10,000. Not per houshold, per qualified person. Many will pay their bills, many will go and blow money wastefully. Either way. Banks, credit card companies, private business would thrive from collecting payments from responsible americans. Consumer retail spending would skyrocket from the irresponsible ones, this would also increase demand, which raises supply, and employment. This would cost less than $1.3tr. Thats really inexpensive considering the $700bn to banks that still isnt opening up to credit to borrowers, or the additional $30+ billion to the auto industy, or the latest $800bn thats about to be dashed away as well. Thats totalling about $1.6tr. My plan cost only $1.3tr. Plus it can be tweaked and adjusted. It really puts the fate of our economy in the hands that built the American economic system, the AMERICAN CONSUMER versus CORPORATE AMERICA. Do you guys think this is a better option? What are your economic thoughts?

(-: I think they should really mess things up, and give every American a half a million dollars (doesn’t even have to be tax free). It’d give people a chance to vote with their dollars about what industries they want saved. And the gov’t would get a bunch back in taxes.
Your plan doesn’t cost 1.3 trillion, as far as I can figure. Yours would be 1,300,000,000,000, which is only 1.3 billion dollars. You’d need three more zeroes to get it up to a trillion. Three more zeroes would give every American 10 million dollars, and THEN your plan would cost 1.3 trillion (-:.
Hey, I’ll take 10 million dollars, too!
Edit: Hmmm. “Oviously” you are one of those poor children who had to learn their mathematics via the New Math system. And your spelling through the New English system, maybe?
Let me give you a brief refresher course:
100 equals one hundred
1,000 equals one thousand
1,000,000 equals one million
1,000,000,000 equals one billion (in the US way of counting)
1,000,000,000,000 equals one trillion (in the US way of counting)
Now, stick THAT in your calculator and see what you get.
1,300,000,000,000 divided by
130,000,000
leaves you 10,000,000.
Poor baby; get a job. You’ll need it. I hear McDonald’s is still hiring, but with your math skills, I wouldn’t be so ambitious.
is it bad that i only read ther first 2 lines and gave up??/ – why cant this question be as easy as pizza’s and round boxes
p.s its not that i’m dumb its because i read the word america.. Hehe!
yes, they should give every american half a million dollars. let the hyper inflation begin now.
Firstly, it does cost 1.3 trillion. 1,300,000,000,000 is 1.3 trillion. a trillion is a thousand thousand millions.
corporate america built the economic system just as much as the consumer. consumer buys and producer sells. it takes two to tango.
corporate us provides jobs.
what your going to do is cause inflation. That doesn’t help everyone. Giving everyone 10 000 dollars won’t help if that makes every other dollar they have worthless. That 800 billion that is being dashed away is going to consumers- its being spent, so it will go to peoples incomes and promote jobs.
It’s just indirect.
As for the bank bailout, that’s there to keep the sector solvent. If they didn’t do that, there would be more instability and we’d plunge towards depression. Investment would dry up more and a lot more banks would go broke
