The Throbber and creepy should be in charge of structuring this bailout

Apparently, the stimulus checks to individuals phase out at income level of $75K. Which means we're all going to pay for this thing over time - but clearly middle- and upper-income level folks are funding the deal.

Consequently, if the gubmint gave a FUCK about those footing the bill, they would issue investment units or shares in this massive equity fund that is bankrolling the whole deal. In the event this shitshow actually works, then the holders of investment units should receive dividend checks or a liquidity event to get a return on their investment.

Instead, the Fed/gubmint is using OPM and keeping all the returns. That is one fucked up private placement, let me tell you.

    I don’t understand what is happening.

    I don’t understand what is happening.

    Listen to the Throbber and @creepycoug when it comes to vulture capital and toxic financings.

    Essentially, you're getting fucked out of your money and the gubmint gets all the upside down the road. Just like the 2008 bailout.

    As I said the other day the Seattle middle class always gets fucked.

    The gubmint has done pretty well on the 2008 bailout.

    That we? paid for.

    That may happen again on the business side. But everything going to the taxpayer this round won’t be paid back.

    Things we are exceptionally good at: (1) structuring deals to make some people a lot of $$, and fuck other people out of any; and (2) admiring and exploiting the human female form.

    Really, what else is there that matters? Watches? Christ. (No offense @Swaye and @YellowSnow )

    My question is, if the gubmint has an extra 1200 bucks to give to everybody (making less than 75K wink) without cutting any programs that I can see, doesn't that mean that we (?) are paying them at least $1200 bucks too much in taxes? I'd rather they just take a hundo a month each month less from now on.

    They just print more money and devalue the money you already make.

    In the trade, it’s called dilution.

    No downround provisions for the folks paying for the financings.

    @creepycoug and the Throbber would have protected their client.
