Instead of giving big banks and the big 3 money. Give each American over the age of 18 who paid taxes last year $300,000.00 each. Tax free. They real people will pay off mortgage (good one and bad ones), pay off their cars, credit cards, student loans and other bill they have. Which WILL stimulate the economy. If you own your house, you will probably do some project, there again stimulating the economy.
No bonuses, no asking for more. we should try this. It has a better potential of stimulating the economy and restoring confidence. It would certainly work for me.
I would pay off my mortgage.

What is this all about?
Our nation's independence movement was inspired by the Patrick Henry assertion that "taxation without representation constituted tyranny". We had no vote or say in King George's England on tax policy, trade policy, or tariffs.
Today, we face a different threat - one in our nations capital and leadership. Many believe that recent economic events have forced US citizens into accepting government oversight and control which we never agreed to.
Which begs the question: What Would Our Founding Fathers Do?
