There was a school with a class of students that no teacher had been able to handle. Two or three teachers had been run off from this school in one year by the unruly students. A young man, just out of college, heard about the class and applied to the school.
..
The principal asked the young man, ‘Do you know what you are asking for? No one else has been able to handle these students. You are just asking for a terrible beating’. After a few moments of silent prayer, the young man looked at the principal and said, ‘Sir, with your consent I accept the challenge. Just give me a trial basis.’

A young lady named Sally, relates an experience she had in a seminary class, given by her teacher, Dr. Smith. She says Dr. Smith was known for his elaborate object lessons.
..
One particular day, Sally walked into the seminary and knew they were in for a fun day. On the wall was a big target and on a nearby table were many darts. Dr. Smith told the students to draw a picture of someone that they disliked or someone who had made them angry, and he would allow them to throw darts at the person’s picture.
..
Sally’s girlfriend drew a picture of a girl who had stolen her boyfriend. Another friend drew a picture of his little brother. Sally drew a picture of a former friend, putting a great deal of detail into her drawing, even drawing pimples on the face. Sally was pleased at the overall effect she had achieved.

We were studying Christmas customs from around the world.It was an ideal opportunity to share the Christmas story.
I explained that Mary and Joseph had gone to Bethlehem to
pay taxes. It was time for the baby Jesus to be born and
they needed somewhere to spend the night. I told my students
that when they went to the inn, there were no empty rooms.

“I’m against the $85,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG. Instead, I’m in favor of giving $85,000,000,000 to American citizens in a “We Deserve It” Dividend.”
**********
To make the math simple, let’s assume there are 200,000,000 bona-fide U.S. Citizens 18 and over. Our population is about 301,000,000 (+/-) counting every man, woman and child. So 200,000,000 might be a fair stab at adults 18 and up. If you divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billon – ta da! -that equals $425,000.00 per adult.
**********
My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18+ as a “We Deserve It” Dividend.
**********
Of course, it would NOT be tax free. So let’s assume a tax rate of 30%. Every individual 18+ has to pay $127,500.00 in taxes. That sends $25,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam.
**********
But it means that every adult 18+ has $297,500.00 in their pocket. A husband and wife has $595,000.00. What would you do with $297,500.00 to $595,000.00 in your family?
**********
Pay off your mortgage – housing crisis solved.
**********
Repay college loans – what a great boost to new grads AND the banks.
**********
Put away money for college – it’ll be there, safe in a bank – creating money to loan to entrepreneurs.
**********
Buy a new car – pump up the flagging automotive industry.
**********
Invest in the market – capital drives growth.
**********
Pay for your parent’s medical insurance – the health care system is crashing.
**********
Enable Deadbeat Dads to come clean – or else.
