Anything short of that is not going to fix anything, and as soon as the banks and large corporations blow through the hundreds of billions of bailout money, we are going to see a major colapse of the economy unlike anything seen since the great depression. If you think 6% unemployment is tough, wait until you see 25 and 30% unemployment.
Wow Eric, brilliant.

Let's have the Democrats and Socialists in Government take the LARGE amounts of taxes paid by corporations and the wealthy in America and funnel it to the poor and middle class to stimulate the economy.

Forget the fact that the corporations and wealthy create jobs in America. I guess you think the guy on the corner with a cardboard sign that says Hungry Please Help will turn America around. I'm betting cigarette and alcohol sales would go through the roof.

Your plan penalizes success and rewards failure. The only ones holding jobs would be those working for the government.
