Bank Bonuses and Corporate Profit

The reported Wall Street Bank Bonuses for 2010:  130 Billion Dollars

Corporate profit reported here and there for 2010 on line  1.7 trillion Dollars.

Simple Math:

130 Billion Dollars  =  Two Million Six Hundred Thousand   $50,000 a year jobs.

1.7 Trillion dollars =  Thirty Four Million $50,000 a year jobs.

Lets see now, if Corporations and Banks made 50% less, then  18 million people could have good jobs!

If Corporations cannot invest in the USA maybe then the people should tax them higher, for instance taxing them $850 billion dollars higher and use that money to take care of our needs.

And we have not even got to looking at dividend payments, and treasury bond payouts and corporate bond payouts etc which mostly pay wealthy people large sums of which we just gave a $300 billion plus tax break too as well, in addition to the profits and bonuses listed above.

We have no shortage of resources and no shortage of money just a great absence of leadership and the courage to take what we have and utilize it wisely.
