Long Division v/s the Candy Crappin' Unicorn™

Yahoo! reports: Obama unveils $75 billion mortgage relief plan.

President Barack Obama says his $75 billion plan to tackle "a crisis unlike any we've ever known" in home foreclosures is necessary to help save the economy.

Obama unveiled the plan in Arizona, hard-hit by the housing crunch. More expensive than expected, it aims to keep 9 million people from losing their homes.


$75B/9M = $8,333.33.

Assuming a $200K house, that means a principal reduction of 4%. It's even less for higher priced houses.

This is a waste of the piece of paper it was written on. And everyone's carryin' on as if the Candy-Crappin' Unicorn™ actually crapped out some candy.

FAIL!!!
