Patriotic Retirement Plan:
There are about 40 million people over 50 in the workplace. Pay them $1 million apiece severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:
1) They MUST retire. That means forty million (some attrition of course) job openings. Unemployment fixed.
2) They MUST buy a new American car. Car industry and manufacturing restored.
3) They MUST either buy a house or payoff their Mortgage. Housing crisis fixed.
That's it, we're only talking 40 million dollars in taxpayer money, not even worth a line item in the US budget.
This would be ample retirement money for anyone with their housing paid for and good transportation.

That’s exactly what I was going to post. Methinks the poster didn’t pass multiple math classes.

Aside from the huge math errors others have pointed out, 1 mill is not anywhere close to enough to retire at age 51.

40M*1M = 40 quadrillion I think. 40 × 10 to the 12th.
Thats a lot of fiat dough.
