Default An appeal to common sense

The big government bailout will cost about $3 trillion when all is said and
done (very conservative estimate).

The population of the US is about 300 million.

The bailout costs about $10,000 per person in the US.

Would you and all of America be better off getting a 10K$ check for every
American or is it better to line the pockets of a privileged few with $3
trillion and hope it trickles down?
