Vote for me

Write me in on Election Day and I will inject billions of dollars into the economy, which will buy goods and create thousands of jobs. Unlike politicians, I have a concrete and viable plan. On my dresser, I have mugs of loose change and will continue to do so as long as my bank is of no help and the pirate machines at the grocery store take 10% off the top. I estimate the amount to be somewhere between thirty and a million dollars (never could guess the number of M&Ms in a jar). Let’s call it thirty-five bucks. Assuming that’s close to the average for Americans, that’s over a billion dollars in dormant purchasing power. Put a coin converting machine is every Post Office (that doesn’t exact the vig) that puts this money back into the game and it buys product and creates employment which, in turn, generates more purchases with the multiplier effect.
