So, spend 40 trillion to open a job market and car industry. Nice idea.

Who would be considered for the $1 mil? Do they have to work at some place for like 20 years and get this as retirment? Or is this for any person working at McD's or burger king? Can you say socialist? What about all the CEOs that are above 50? I am already paying for these baby boomers to retire on social security, why do I want more debt to fall on me for their in ability to save? Do away with social security, millions in revenue. Do away with welfare for the people that dont work, millions in revenue.

Million not Trillion or even Billion. I am not saying it is the best idea ever but I certianly don't think giving $510 BILLION to banks and mortgage companies was a good idea either. There is no reason no to let them fail. It was their unsound business practices that led to their problems yet the taxpayers should bail them out? Can you say SOCIALISM? I am not saying that giving away 40 million wouldn't be socalist in nature. What I am saying is IMHO, it would be more economically benificial than giving $510 BILLION to institutions that have PROVEN they are unable or unwilling to manage the money they had.
