add up the 156 million with the other number divide by 300 million. so you gave at least a dollar.
this is an issue to write congress on. sure NOW they want some type of regulation, after they bumped $2 up to $10 a share, of YOUR MONEY!

Traditional capitalism:
You have two cows.
You sell one and buy a bull.
Your herd multiplies, and the economy grows.
You sell them and retire on the income.

American capitalism:
You have two cows.
You sell one, and force the other to produce the milk of four cows.
You are surprised when the cow drops dead.

How about some tax incentives for companies who want to manufacture things in the U.S.?
You know, like actually "make things" here again.
