Sorry, 1 million in cash (no tax on this) is more than 98% of Americans will have at retirement. Your quip doesn’t cut it.

Sounds Great.

There would be no doctors over age 50.

Good luck.

That would cost 40 trillion dollars (forty million multiplied by 1 million).

Stupid. 40 million people at $1 per person is 40 million dollars.

Yeah, How about raising the minimum wage to $100 an hour! Woo-hoo! Everyone would be rich!... Except a big mac would cost $40, as would a gallon of gas.

This is like killing pigs to make the price of pork go up, as FDR did. These kinds of policies never solve the real problem.

Government IS the problem. Not the solution.

That's it, we're only talking 40 million dollars in taxpayer money, not even worth a line item in the US budget.

One more stipulation - you MUST purchase a calculator

Please note this from the owner of Free Republic:

“This is a news forum. But I sure am seeing a lot of vanity posts lately.

You know our readers generally frown on vanities (unless exceptional in quality) so if you feel the urge to post yet another run of the mill vanity, please resist it.

Or, in the very least, be sure to submit a donation along with your vanity submission.”

I suggest you donate an extra $100.00 to pay for your vanity.
