wouldn't it be better to just cut a check to all the people out of work for $100k?
488,000,000,000/682,370=715,154 |
They could have dispersed that money to all Americans (in the beginning) and the economy would have prospered, but the corrupt government gave it to the corrupt companies ;)
Maybe we should stop worrying about 3rd world shit holes and keep our money at home.
After all, charity begins at home, not in some other country.
