That is exactly what they did in Australia everyone got a once off payment of $900 and some people got dual payments so $1800. It has been debated how well it worked but Australia weathered the financial crisis VERY WELL, we were up in the top 5 I think countries when they compared devastation.
well a few years back the government gave us all a couple hundred bucks too... and youre totally right about everyone blowing it on bullshit... all the same, i know it would have been hard to get everyone to spend the money on what they are supposed to, but im sure there could have been a way... but instead our country is in a 10 trillion dollar deficit. .. Ive been reading that americas actual debt is some 8 trillion dollars more than accounted for.
==============================================
back to the main post though: For those of you who believe in the shadow government: considering the day and age, the shadow government controls or has i very long arm in each of the following categories: Technology, money, Drug trade, military, religion, school system, MEDIA, and more...
so its a given that our giant banking corporations are needed to help launder money for the drug cartel, the shadow government is more or less a drug cartel among other things.... I forgot where i read this, it was one night while i was high on some primo cannabis that i stumbled upon some kind of letter between two politicians...it basically talked about how these people wanted to manipulate different sectors of the public, make these people poor, turn this percentage into dope addicts(heroin, methamphetamines), this amount should go to jail,....it was hideous the way they were talking about the people of our country.... sorry for the random and not so random posting guys......i could carry this conversation on forever... everything would be much better if the people at the top were all philosophy kings like it is in PLATOS REPUBLIC.... and to think, we are supposed to be a republic.
