Nice idea, though; a much better way to spend the money.

Once again people don’t read and don’t double check the internet crap. If you divide 850 billion by 200 million, you get 4250. No more and no less.

I know it is tempting to take at face value things of this sort, I did and sent it on before I thought to take out my calculator and check it.

But please, always check someone else’s figures. If you don’t, never buy a car or a house.

Read below…imagine if we took that 700 billion and distributed this way!!!

My choice is throw out all incumbents, vote in a one-term limit, and choose committee membership and leadership through a lottery. Then, and only then, will our representatives be able to speak their own mind and conduct business in the best interest of the US.

All the traitor Republicans face a political annihilation in November for these and other crimes.
