Buy McDonald's corporation with Stimulus money for $70 Billion (15% premium over current market cap)<br /><br />Step 2. Restructure and sell off the 17,000 (of 31,000 total) locations outside the U.S. raising $35 Billion<br /><br />Step 3. Remodel the 14,000 U.S. locations into healthcare clinics (with drive thru pharmacies) $1.75M/Store - Total 24.5B<br /><br />Step 4. Build $1000 new locations ($2.5M/Store) - Total $2.5B<br /><br />Step 5. Increase the payroll tax from 7.65 to 7.75 raising raising approximately $11.25 billion/yr<br /><br />Step 6. Dedicate the new payroll tax to operate each clinic with 5 medical professionals and annual budget of $750,000.<br /><br />Open the 15,000 McDoctor clinics to provide free healthcare for people without insurance and keep the annual budget balanced with the payroll tax revenue. (Just think of all the trans fat that would go away!)<br /><br />Now work on fixing the system for those of us with insurance!GregZwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06270655421044514023noreply@blogger.com
