My husband’s girlfriend’s ex husband was interviewed by Brian Williams on the news 10/28/08. I would like to see the video..he’s a dry cleaner in Tampa, FL
Thanks
Debbie, first, sorry that your husband has a girlfriend.
Second, I don’t think Robert or Bill have access to that. I could be wrong, but unless Brian Williams is put up on Hulu, I don’t think you’ll find it by asking here. Sorry!
Wouldn’t the economy be better stimulated if you gave the cash to the people, but it would have to be a significant amount. There are 306 million people in the USA. If you gave one million dollars to each household (this would be less than 306 million and a lot less than the billions that are being voted on). Can you imagine what would happen? Mortgages would be paid off, car loans would be paid off, people would even buy cars (and hopefully American made cars only – we do make good cars in the USA) and houses. How simple is that! And it would work!
