The 85 billion is for the AIG bailout. The proposed new overall bail out is
700 billion. 85 billion divided by 200 million = 425. Try it this way, 200
million times 425,000. You get 85 trillion. The US gross domestic product
(GDP) is only a little over 14 trillion.

Make it even simpler ... use a calculator and divide 85,000,000,000 by
200,000,000.
( Am I doing something wron, or is that NOT 425,000. )

To make the math simple, let's assume there are 200,000,000 bonafide
U.S. Citizens 18+.
Our population is about 301,000,000 +/- counting every man, woman and
child. So 200,000,000 might be a fair stab at adults 18 and up..
So divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billon -- that equals
$425,000.00. idgets
