Everything Else is Small Stuff!

Steve Brown November 4th, 2009

A friend of mine sent me a copy of a letter submitted to the St. Petersburg Times (Florida) in response to the paper's query about how readers would "fix the economy."

One letter was addressed to the President of the United States and suggested that, instead of giving billions of dollars to companies who will squander it, the president should send a million dollars to each person in America over a certain age in the work force.
