How hard do you work for money?

How does $2,500.00 in each person's hands help to prop up our economy? Big business needs to sell and if they cut the throats of the small businesses then no one survives because the bleeding out of our country has been through the corruption of the executives in the financial sector and the doctors that think they have tapped a golden vein when a bleeding patient comes through the door. Unfortunately the only cure is to look again at the elite and how they earned their wealth. The sharing of the wealth will be the only way that our country moves forward and that will probably begin with another look at the biggest business in our land. What business holds title or deed to the most amount property and buildings where a vast well of our wealth is contained?

You think like I think very much alike about being fiscally responsible, I really do agree with you but $2,500.00 seems a drop in the bucket as I look at what I have needed to borrow to have a house in a community that needs to be dolled up on the outside. I'd like to make my house maintenance free... That takes a lot of money, money that I spent in the court system and for education to get me on my way. Take a look at my latest conversation that I started and let me know which is the better letter, please? Now don't be intimidated by who is going to be addressed by this letter it also goes to the Federal Judge and the Defendant and the Clerk of Court... I might even send one to the First Lady...

Well, if I received money I would spend it - at both big and small businesses - which would help them sell - and thus help the economy. That is the way I was looking at it. If they give the money to the big businesses I fail to see how it helps the people in general. And since the government now owns part of Chrysler and GM - I will never buy another one of those cars. I will stick with Ford and Toyota, who are staying in business because they have good business practices, not because the government is giving them a handout....my two cents that may not be very clear because I have not had enough coffee yet this morning....

I have a figure, I just need a figure to match the figure that I have... Uhmmm, are we still talking math? One and one make three, or more heheheeheeee...

You don't mean that the social group that networks together keeps the money from getting to the poor who we are like? Them in that range up there keep for themselves and the poor don't know what we are missing? Them up there in that range over all of us do practice a form of socialism do they not?

Don't you really think this discussion is about of our range? We ain't gonna get no money HE,he, he, he LA, La, te da !!!!!

I wish it were all that easy... Maybe if we keep the money for ourselves then we could do much better... dividing 300 million into 750 Billion might fare much better than sharing with the rest of the world, we could each have like $2,500.00 yet I think we need the rest of the world to exist ourselves, at least in a comfortable manner. I think the key is just that sharing... and $2,500.00 is not really all that much money in the grand scheme of one or two hundred thousand dollar mortgages, with doctors health insurance cares that cost more than a mortgage payment. Two bubbles in need of being popped so the poor can get a foot up the ladder and their heads above water.

Yep... You nailed that right on the head, as soon as I think I'm gaining I find that I'm having to pay for things some of which I really don't need, although I feel that some of these things are required.

I know what you mean the bills just won't stop as they keep marching on... And it isn't like I wanted more than the other guy, but I look around and see what some people have and I wonder why the disparity? While they are in their comfortable place and I have this anxiety of being able to pay the next payment, knowing that I can't have the nice house or the new car and one bill out of place and I could end up on the streets and then there is the issue of my licensing for my employment. Did you know there is a limit to how many hours I can work? The tell me how many hours I can work and how I'm to do my job and when I do everything that I'm told to do there is no protection for doing my job correctly when I get accused of not being a good person (defamation). The courts allowed the detective to violate me and then my wife violated me and the courts actually suggested that if I couldn't make the child support payments that they demanded of me that I should take on a second job??? Uhmmm that would require me to quit my current job and a second job won't hardly pay what I'm earning now... Or did they think I could get a degree and move up the social ladder with this great burden upon my back? Grrrrr! The elite in the court system are kicking poor people down the ladder by stepping on our fingers.

See, I told you Dawns don't do math. 125....

Your first answer was the answer that I was thinking also not doing the math correctly either was I? I was making a reply to someone else and it hit me the answer was far less than what I was thinking and sure enough I had a person respond to point out the very fact that I realized was the truth. I'm really glad that I worded the post the way that I did, because it doesn't read as bad as I was thinking but hey' you know what they used to say about the first million? Now make that a Billion and we have the same struggle. At least some of us do, I know I'm a struggling poor, obviously...

That is exactly what I was thinking and then reality came crashing in, if you do the reverse, 125 X 6 Billion equals? I think the global gift would be a lot smaller than what we were thinking originally...

Your right, I wouldn't mind a few extra dollars myself... I think I was tripping on all the zero's... My thoughts went into the billions and never came back, I'd love to have a billion dollars... Or better yet a couple of million. Not everyone will have that much but some actually make it into such a lifestyle. I can't fathom what that would be like???
