Rev. Drew’s Thoughts from the Throne...better bailout idea
I'm against the $85,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG.
Instead, I'm in favor of giving $85,000,000,000 to America in
a We Deserve It Dividend.
To make the math simple, let's assume there are 200,000,000
bonafide U.S. Citizens 18+.
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.
So divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billon that equals $425,000.00.
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
Put away money for college – it'll be there
Save in a bank – create money to loan to entrepreneurs.
Buy a new car – create jobs
Invest in the market – capital drives growth
Pay for your parent's medical insurance – health care improves
Enable Deadbeat Dads to come clean – or else
Remember this is for every adult U S Citizen 18 + including the folks
who lost their jobs at Lehman Brothers and every other company
that is cutting back. And of course, for those serving in our Armed
Forces.
If we're going to re-distribute wealth let's really do it...instead of
trickling out a puny $1000.00 ( 'vote buy' ) economic incentive that is
being proposed by one of our candidates for President.
If we're going to do an $85 billion bailout, let's bail out every adult U S
Citizen 18+!
As for AIG – liquidate it.
Sell off its parts.
Let American General go back to being American General.
Sell off the real estate.
Let the private sector bargain hunters cut it up and clean it up.
Here's my rationale. We deserve it and AIG doesn't.
Sure it's a crazy idea that can 'never work.'
But can you imagine the Coast-To-Coast Block Party!
How do you spell Economic Boom?
I trust my fellow adult Americans to know how to use the $85 Billion
We Deserve It Dividend more than I do the geniuses at AIG or in
Washington DC.
And remember, The Birk plan only really costs $59.5 Billion because
$25.5 Billion is returned
instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.
Ahhh...I feel so much better getting that off my chest.
Kindest personal regards,
PS: Feel free to pass this along to your pals as it's either good for a
laugh or a tear or a very sobering thought on how to best use $85
Billion!!

Rev. Drew Thoughts from the Throne 10/7
I watched the movie Idiocracy the other night and immediately I
decided it won't take that long (go see the movie to understand) for
our society to change for the worse.
What can we do to reform our welfare system?
Nick and Drew talked about this a few years ago and it is back in the
headlines. State Rep. John LaBruzzo came up with an idea that makes
a lot of sense. Why not have the state pay to sterilize poor women as a
way to shrink welfare recipients? He was removed from his committee
chair and rebuked.
Why is this such a bad idea?
This would lower the amount of welfare recipients.
This would prevent a generation of future welfare recipients and
criminals from being born.
Addicts who are prostituting will not be able to bring unwanted
children into the world.
Prevents welfare recipients who can't afford the children they already
have from having more children...that they can't pay for.
The cost of sterilization would be infinitely less than the price of
welfare for extra children.
This would save welfare recipients the cost of birth control.
The state charity hospital would be relieved of the burden of care for
more welfare babies.
I could keep listing benefits of this program for years but you get the
point. This guy shouldn't have gotten in trouble, he should be
commended for actually creating a solution to the welfare epidemic.
You can email me anytime at nickanddrew@hotmail.com.

Rev. Drew’s Thoughts from the Throne 10/26
Got a second cancellation on our Rob Zombie interview. It was
supposed to happen last Friday and then once cancelled this
morning. I was told he was sick and with the tour starting he couldn’t
talk but I could be on a teleconference (generic questions from
approved interviewer) if I wanted. I said whatever to the guy and he
promised to send me the link.
Weird, I feel like I just got stood up on a date, twice, by a hot chick! I
know Rob is a long-haired, bearded man in his 40s but the sting is still
there. I don’t know if the interview would have been good (gotten laid
in dating) but the possibility existed. Now I’m let down and I’ll have to
settle for listening to Dragula (porn on the internet in dating land)
instead.
Is this the same as dating rejection? Perhaps, but I’m pretty sure I
couldn’t impress Rob with a wad of cash and a fancy car…or could I. I
can’t show Rob how I can get him into the restaurant he’s been dying
to get into.
Ok, I’m calming down now. I’ll quit posting horrible rumors about him
on facebook and telling the guys what a slut he is. I’ll just have to
avoid all references of him for now, (no House of 1,000 Corpses for
Halloween this year) until the hurt is no more.

As a guy, I’m reading the Woman has 300 orgasms daily and my initial
thought is…”This is my dream woman!” Then I thought, how the hell
would I ever keep up with her? The reality is I would like it once a day
but too much more than that and it may become a job. Time to clock in,
have sex, and clock out…repeat.
As manly as I think I am, I’m not man enough for a woman like this. This
is the equivalent of wanting to be a gynecologist. Sounds like a great
way to see naked women until you realize that 98% of the women you
are seeing are grandmas and not the 19 year old college coeds you
wished for. All of a sudden, it becomes a job instead of a fantasy.
So I guess I’ll just be happy with what I’m doing now…err…rather how
much I’m doing now. However, if you ask me I’ll still lie and tell you
and I can do it all day long.

Rev. Drew’s Thoughts from the Throne: 11/24
Every day I pass the same bridge with the same graffiti…Nick loves
Cassie written in huge red graffiti. I’m wondering if they are still
together. If so, what a great lasting tribute of their love…everyone
knows (if they pass this way) that Nick loves Cassie.
However, what if they are not together? Since Nick hasn’t removed
or covered the graffiti, then everyone must assume he still loves
Cassie. What if he is trying to move on, find new love, or just wants
everyone to know if he’s available?
He probably has to avoid the area altogether. Imagine he gets a new
love and he drives past this bridge, you know he’s going to get the riot
act from the new girl. “You still love Cassie, don’t you,” and, “If you
really love me you’ll graffiti Nick loves me!” See how bad this could
get! So now Nick can’t drive to that area of town, can’t find a new
girlfriend, and ultimately can’t cover it up for fear of being arrested.
So Nick, if you are still with Cassie, congratulations. If not, you poor
bastard, you now know the true price of your love dedication,
loneliness and anger. Next time just by Cassie a greeting card and
save your self the beat down.

Rev. Drew Thoughts from the Throne 11/27/09:
Why do people put their kid’s names and likenesses on the back of
their cars? I just don’t get it. What they are actually doing is helping
Carl the Kidnapper and Chester the Molester get to know their kids
better. This is what I think every time I see that Susie is a Cheerleader
or Billy plays baseball and is #9 on the team. The worst is the Disney
families who put the entire family including the pet on the back of the
car.
How hard would it be to say, “Hey Julie, my name is Drew and I’m a
friend of your mothers. We plan Disney vacations together. I helped
her plan last year’s trip for you and your brother Johnny and sister
Katie. Your parents have been in a wreck and you need to come with
me!”
You know enough about them to have a conversation just because
over-obsessed Mom and Dad had to turn their car into a rolling
billboard about their kids. I’m just sayin’ parents should be more
careful during a time when bad people are stealing children. Also, the
stickers on the car are annoying to me because its just parents living
through their kids…I’m just sayin’.
