Patriotic Retirement Plan
Instead of giving billions of dollars to companies that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan. You can call it the Patriotic Retirement Plan:
There are about 40 million people over 50 in the work force. Pay them $1 million apiece severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:
1) They MUST retire. Forty million job openings -Unemployment fixed.
2) They MUST buy a new American CAR. Forty million cars ordered-Auto Industry fixed.
3) They MUST either buy a house or pay off their mortgage -Housing Crisis fixed.
It can't get any easier than that!
I love this and totally agree that this plan would be the best stimulus ever. If in fact you are serious and are trying to get a national movement in this direction, please let me know.
I have emailed this to all of my friends and a copy to the White House.
I really don't see how this plan would work since it would cost $40 trillion. If you do the math correctly - 40,000,000 * 1,000,000 = $40,000,000,000,000. 13 0's = $40 trillion.
Let's use the old calculator before coming up with solutions to major issues.
