My Pit Bull who ate the lipstick.....

With the only bad vice being advice, Baby (pictured) wants to go out on a limb with some questions... L@@k... would you want her in charge of the hen house? Would you fatten up those chickens while in her charge? Please keep these questions in mind as we watch the smoke and mirrors game being played out daily in our own messed up world.

Did we not just experience this with oil?

Found the following quite interesting:

This is being passed around the internet as a joke. Thing is, I like the ‘Thinking Outside The Box’ aspect. Read on:

I’m against the $85,000,000,000. 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 U.S. Citizens 18+.Our population is about 301,000,000 +/- counting every man, woman and child. This 200,000,000 may be a fair stab at adults 18 and up.

Divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billion. That Equals $425,000.

My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18+ as the “We Deserve It Dividend.”

Of course, this WOULD NOT be tax-free. Let’s assume a tax rate of 30% so every individual would pay $127,500 in taxes. That sends $25,500,000,000. back to Uncle Sam.

This means that every adult 18+ has $297,500 in their pocket. A husband and wife have $595,000.

What would you do with $297, 500 to $595,000?

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 to save in a bank or 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 worldwide. If we're going to re-distribute wealth let's really do it... instead of trickling out a puny $1000 (“vote buy”) economic incentive that is being proposed by one of our candidates for President or the $1200 provided by the current President. If we're going to do an $85 billion bailout, let's bail out every adult US 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. If they did, they wouldn't be in the mess they are in now! 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 Family 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.
