"So as for my opinion... I don't think the bail out is a good thing at all. I read an email yesterday breaking down the numbers. 300 million people in the U.S. of those that are citizens and over eighteeen round numbers 200 million people divided into 750 billion is $375,000 per person. If that money was given to the people instead woudn't that stimulate the economy, solve the lending issues and the stock market crisis? Not that I think that is a good idea because it would be terrible for inflation but it helps to put the number in perspective."
Show your math. You are off by a few zeros. $700,000,000,000.00 divided by 200,000,000 = $3500.00

"I read an email yesterday breaking down the numbers" do you believe every email you get? If so then I have a friend who is a minister in the goverment of (fill in Aferican nation) and he need your help to send some mony to the U.S. If you help him you will get half. Now all he needs is your bank account numbers and social security number. Really.
